Ah, because they need to move parts today to demonstrate that the parts are movable. This is a today's foot in the today's door.

All my kids had and have unfiltered internet access. The oldest being 32 and the youngest being 12. All fine. The dangers of access to unfiltered information are certainly real but not worthy of constant worry.

Yes, thankfully. However it is pretty obvious at this point that Ubuntu will absolutely remove those from one of the future releases because availability of real sudo and coreutils is detrimental to the virtue signaling they are engaging in

Do you really want to be compliant to ITIL 4 or do you want to sell to your target market? I'm pretty sure you want customers who pay money, and ITIL 4 badge is just a small mean to achieve that, not a goal per se.

I think the thing we are confusing here is "compliance" vs the "highest possible standards". In theory these two terms mean the same thing. In practice compliance can be detrimental to the cause and values that you and I
