"Let those who fight monsters take care lest they themselves become monsters." - Friedrich Nietzsche That danger always exists, but it can't be happening here in regard to invariant sections, because they are not a change. We've been using invariant sections in our manuals since at least 15 years ago. What the GFDL changed in regard to invariant sections was to formalize the criteria, stating explicitly that sections that cover part of the manual's topic cannot be invariant, and to increase compatibility by providing a way to merge manuals with different invariant sections.
