And if we had chosen that, it likely still wouldn't be where it is
today, because it wouldn't have had the exposure.  It was functional
for the vast majority of uses and the exposure got more and more things
fixed on it.  If there was an alternative then everybody would just
switch back to the old method, and no bugs would get filed and no
corner cases would get discovered.
