The problem I'm referring to is that such a hack was needed. That's a sign 
something is deeply broken and we're really just talking about our 
tolerances.

But the overall push back I would have is, if it's easily supportable, 
somebody could have joined the project to maintain the code with us. 
Nobody has. So that puts an ever increasing burden on a small group to 
support every single different thing people might want and become 
"experts" in everything, which is just not sustainable.
