I'm sorry to say this but your whole premise is based on hearsay and 
personal opinion.

Instead of vague assertions about "upstream intentions" and the like, I'd 
really appreciate it (if you are going to meddle with the toolchain build 
method) that you at least do what I have done for years and offer 
detailed analysis and testing and full explanation so the rest of us can 
decipher what the hell you're up to. So far you haven't quite 
demonstrated you fully understand the changes you are proposing.

It's been clear over the years that not many folks within LFS have the 
interest, knowledge, skills etc to do the heavy lifting when it comes to 
build method matters. This needs to change and there needs to be more 
experienced eyeballs on these kinds of proposed changes so that they 
don't sneak through without proper scrutiny.

I'm way out of date, out of form, and short on time but I'll try to 
debunk some of your incorrect assertions as soon as I get the chance.

Regards
Greg
