Agreed, although, I don't even remember this coming up two years ago.  But,
I was tied up with a lot of work-related stress and tasks, so probably just
my memory storage backend not having enough cycles to commit it to...neurons.

IMHO, perhaps future GLEPs should have a defined window to implement them
following discussion.  Having the discussion, then waiting a few years
before implementing them leads to discussions like this where we're arguing
about the color of the boat after the boat has sailed off into the distance.
