With all that to consider, is it *really* a significant cost to add

See above (and my earlier message): the significant cost is to
discover the root cause of the problem, and that -fpermissive is the
solution. The rest might be relatively easier, at least in some
projects.
-fpermissive seems to be posted as the standard solution in this thread,
I don't know what constructs it allows, but it might enable things the
user doesn't want besides silencing this new change.
So it seems to be more effort than to "just add -fpermissive" to get the
code to compile again.
Think about big code bases where many developers are working on in
different areas.
