Note I never said it should be importable into base.

Argumentum ad populum.

If the VCS is 1) easy to use 2) easy to maintain and has a body of people
working on it already 3) can import other VCS formats, then why not?
Also note that using an appeal to popularity suggests
we should go with the flow and stop working on llvm/clang.  Afer all,
everyone else uses gcc.

As it happens, fossil is quite tiny, fairly feature rich, BSDL'd and in
active development.  QED

All that being said,  I am not interested in bikeshedding right now. 
Those who will look at the alternatives intelligently should do so.
