Do you have any references that elaborate on that? From an outsider perspective, the time64 transition in Debian seemed to have been relatively uncontroversial and smooth. Way better than e.g. the /usr-merge.

My Debian systems are pretty boring, so maybe it's to be expected, but as an end-user neither the /usr merge or time64 transition broke anything for me, and I'm using Testing.
