Is the problem the size of base per-se, or is it more the number of things in base for which the design might ideally be subject to change?
It's a combination of many small things. base gets a little bigger, and is a little slower to compile. It's another thing waiting to get tangled up in base's dependency loops. It's another thing the libraries@ reviewers and base committers are responsible for. This change alone isn't a major issue; it's a death-by-a-thousand-cuts problem. Thanks Ian
