I still don't see a good argument why we made our system so inflexible,
that obviously needed change needs such high amount of work, PR and proof.

Trying to improve gaming in gentoo took me 2 years full of work just to
realize it is a dead end and I am doing most of the work alone.
The necessity was obvious.

Trying to improve a tiny fraction about gentoo workflow (including your
attempts) already took more than 4(?) years with never ending excuses.
The necessity was more than obvious.

Now I could talk about similarly obvious things. Sure, not all issues
are obvious and those shouldn't be easy to push through.

You can draw your conclusions about this. I drew mine: small changes
will not get us out of here.


Have fun, if you can.
