I've got to say that this is somewhat reminicient of the discussions around
in-core pooling, where argument 1 is applied to justify excluding pooling
from core/contrib.

I don't have a strong position on whether a DTM should be in core or not as
I haven't done enough work in the area. I do think it's interesting to
strongly require that a DTM be in core while we also reject things like
pooling that are needed by a large proportion of users.
