I too find this a bit strong -- given what I've said about about optimising for writing these files, I don't think we should be expecting people to come up with a package-specific reason if they find themselves wanting to use the old format. I'd like to suggest this recommendation could be of the same strength as the "use salsa" recommendation, i.e., weaker than the dh recommendation, and directed at people with no reasons to prefer either who are wondering which to use. -- Sean Whitton
