Inertia mostly, old systems with fairly old distro (and not enough disk
space to upgrade), and automake still works somewhat. I think the
consensus was to keep automake going for tests only until a good enough
meson is available in debian stable/ubuntu lts. I think everything else is
switched, including our CI. Personally I'd run a more aggressive upgrade
cycle, but I think this is ok overall.
