One thing we mustn't lose sight of is that the number of people =20
complaining is that it is utterly insignificant compared to the =20
seething hordes that have complained about the number of git- commands =
=20
in /usr/bin over the years. We're talking about a dozen or so compared =

to hundreds. And the change is likely to save us from hundreds more in =
=20
the future.
