All arguments against Drew's proposals so far converge at "it is better
to do nothing." Why not propose something even better? Throwing "where
is your evidence?" around is easy, but one must consider we are far from
the domain of scientific method here, or of law. Is existence of people
on Emacs related forums suggesting setting custom-file to /dev/null as a
good solution evidence enough? How about split of early-init/creation
of straight.el? What you call "belief/ideology" is known as intuition,
and it is the primary force behind any successful software. Or any
kind of invention, really. If only concern is the cost of change, why
not produce arguments for how to reduce that cost or to find a way
forward?
