If something "adopts" this as an approach, it then inherits all the
practices, and would need to do its own profiling to then limit the options
further. I don't see that happening as much as if the "best practice" were
already here, so the effect is to leave things pretty much as they are.

Precluding something doesn't necessarily mean leaving it undocumented or
unmentioned though.
