Taken on its face, this appears to be an argument for never making any
changes to any aspect of IETF infrastructure.
The pain level of getting anything in the IETF's infrastructure to be
changed is high enough to make that argument plausible, but of course it
isn't -- or rather, it must not be -- acceptable.
It's a feature. It's difficult enough that we'd have a damned good
reason to undertake any changes.
So the question is whether the problems of concern are serious enough to
warrant the very likely (nay, certain) pain?
Exactly.
