Since we have a coherent story about this working for you, I think
we should probably send it upstream for review. I don't have a
particular opinion about it being the right thing to do, as since it's
a policy decision, it's rather arbitrary.
If this is important to you, it may help to numerically quantify your
results, e.g. some before/after benchmark/throughput/whatever numbers.
