This is all in the realm of node policy, which must be easy to modify/customise in a flexible manner. So simplifying other code in a way that makes the policy harder to configure is not a welcome change. That is, by making the code simpler, if you make custom policies (such as the current default) harder, it is better to leave the main code less simple.
