Maybe! I would prefer not to disable these in tests now, nor let go of some of
them, because those
strategies serve as backup options should the default strategy misbehave (like
it does now, in some
corner cases).
Right, I wasn't suggesting we remove all of them (or even do it now),
but maybe start
examining which, if any, of these fallback options are being used in the
wild and start
planning for deprecating and removing any unused ones in an orderly fashion.
