Sorry if that came off wrong. I was agreeing with Greg's with the former
statement.  Not the latter one.

That is not a constructive vote. No one thinks we should have more bloat.

The question is do we need to focus more on this. Some of the changes are
due to shortcuts we have taken in the past that are now causing issues. The
PR that spurred this is exactly this. The code as it exists is wrong in
that it has unexpected side effects which is what Xiao is trying to
address.

I will acknowledge that there have been other changes where it was more of
a complexity trade-off.  Even on those there was discussion about the
impact.

Great please file the simple PR to add it. This is not trivial as we need
to manage the artifacts from previous builds to do the comparison or double
the build time. We heard you last time, but someone has to do to the actual
work.
