> The issue... effects a small number of use cases currently... With potentially large ripple effects. Old Windows boxes getting lightweight Linux distros provide a lot of machines for students, schools, people without cash, giveaway machines for friends, elderly relatives in need, etc. Making that process harder (e.g., shim required) probably means more machines will just go to the trash (unless the shim is widely incorporated in lightweight distros maybe). What a waste (at the very least, of time).
