Although in this case you got a very detailed answer, I'd like to suggest
that it is usually better to check resources like the migration guides,
"git blame", etc. to track down the rationale for decisions - instead of
expecting that a developer will always see your post and have time or
desire to directly explain so many things in precise detail.

Sure, that takes a bit longer as a user, but the alternative is that
developers have to spend time constantly relitigating past decisions, which
at its extreme would mean they'll have no time to develop. :P
