The "call to arms" is great but doesn't really offer any ideas.
There are alternatives already and if they are not getting enough use, there must be reasons. What are they?
I don't enjoy this in PRs either. Someone says "this is not good" or "let's not do X". Great, what do you propose instead?
The proposal here is to "let's not not do something" but that's not strong enough, especially if the author is not a strong figure.
It also makes me question, did git happen because people in general hated svn? There were lots of haters of svn and cvs and the others but it didn't happen until Linus had a clear vision of what was missing and what would replace the existing tools
I believe that's how change happens.. not because people preach we should not not do something but they at least suggest something concrete and/or create something to fill the void as best as they can
