Might all be true, still people do use it.

Problem here is that I alone have seen 5 or more people asking how to record
macros/why it does not work.
And then when people need to turn on a switch that activates exerimental code
that may destroy data, I see a problem.
Therefore obviously I opened this issue.

I know the old explanations around this situation, so expect the chances for
this are pretty low ;-)
