First of all, I am sorry for my tone.

I have been thinking about it and I was wrong to oppose this change.
I have been conflating two problem: EGO_SUM and Manifest sizes. 
However, while EGO_SUM might be an important factor contributing to
the latter, I think we shouldn't single it out and instead focus
on addressing the actual problem.

That said, I believe it's within maintainer's right to decide what API
to deprecate and what API to support.  So I'd suggest getting William's
approval for this rather than changing the supported API of that eclass
via drive-by commits.
