Do we actually get real benefit from packaging R with sage? It seems to me R is a very popular, very mature piece of software. Isn't it easy to install R on any of the platforms supported by sage? If that is the case, wouldn't it be much easier to let sage just work with the system-wide R if that is available? The whole OpenSSL issue would still bite people who have to rely on installing R within sage, but if we can just use a system-wide R in most cases, that would be a much smaller (empty?) set of people.
