No one's upset :)

It's just one of those things where people like to suggest drastic
things that would wildly change the distro, add to the workload, and
generally make life harder for the developers without even trying it
themselves.

There is a reason why people say "patches welcome" when you request
changes to their code - if someone cares enough, they'd do the work.
