If maintanence is a burden for those that usually maintain these things, we can by fiat just bump up to 1.5.3. It isn’t the end of the world if we do. It just seems the cost isn’t that high to me, however I’m happy to defer to the people in the trench. Since 1.5 isn’t going to ease what appears to be the main issue, I think status quo or 1.5.3 make the most sense. So, let’s phrase it this way, if you work in the trench and are impacted, do you want to see the bump to 1.5.3 now to ease the burden?
