Mike, that flies in the face of everything we've learned historically and
technically about language evolution and separation of concerns in
environments where multiple components interface with a complex base.  It's
the Big Button strategy.  It has never worked before.  What has changed that
would make one believe it can be made to work by remedy?

don't pretend that that's an inevitable fact of life let alone a Good Thing.
As far as I'm concerned, it's a situation to be remedied.
