It's actually much worse than just SCADA, there are deployments in things like
wholesale banking where the semi-deprecation of DH suites has led to them
falling back to RSA instead.  This pointless removal of FFDHE, while it'll be
written as MUST NOT FFDHE, will actually be MUST RSA in some environments.

In other words not only will it not make things any more secure, it'll make
some things much, much less secure.
