If those thousands of boxes are all employing one specific workflow that is helped by these changes, and the workflow is that other people do not care about (or even worse, actively do not want to let their junior project members to use without thinking), then a data-point from the original author does not amount to much ;-) Let's see how others find it useful and/or if the changed code gets in the way of others (I am not absolutely sure if the changes are free of regression to existing users who do not use the new feature). Thanks.
