I think it is not about adding commands to raco but, as you also mentioned, about having a back-end with the information planet1 can provide but planet2 does not. I always thought Jay is saying that planet2 will be the only base for a coming higher level functionality but that planet1 will be deprecated (or only be kept for compatibility).
