I think everyone is agreeing that we should have a suitable replacement for EWS.
But I also want to see us move forward with clean ups. I think such clean ups will bring clarity to what we would want our EWS testing to look like since we'll have fewer configurations to test. I like the approach of switching to manual testing in the short term, and working in parallel on an EWS replacement.
