Right. https://bugs.gentoo.org/781881 is still open. Flow could ping
the QA team and ask if it should be closed, given the opinion there
seems to be that there's no need to keep them, but I think it's wrong
to do this pre-empting a policy decision, given it essentially forces
the "don't keep them" path.
