I think the reason there's such a kerfuffle around a 'close-to-now' freeze date is more of a concern as to when cassandra 5.0 is going to be released. I'm assuming if people thought 5.0 was going to be released in early 2019 no one would have a problem with setting the freeze date of 4.0 to

The thing is, good intentions are cheap. And they get cheaper the further out in the future the point of action gets. Realistically, the main difference between June and September is we ship three months later. More, if we manage to land large, destabilizing patches in the meantime. I’m very
