I'm all for continuing the migration. Even better: the more hands do the porting, the more people will know the internals, the better shape the tree ends up being.
I think we should make a serious effort to finish this migration rather than throw away what Berin did.
But this cannot drag along too much for the reason above.
That is why I chose to "fail early" instead of dragging on and on.
