I'm in favour of a different, fifth solution:

Yay, maybe we can have this whole discussion all over again!
Let's bring out all the same arguments, come to no conclusion, and let
it taper off unresolved, yet again! :)
My impression was that there was not enough time to do something like
that for the soon-to-be-released 3.0, so it was deferred. Now or soon
