I am starting to think "POLA" as an acronym is subject to abuse. By
this definition, *any* change would "astonish" a user (picturing the
most incompetent user impossible too).
POLA is meant for unreasonable and unexplained changes. I don't think
tidying up locales for the first time in a decade is unreasonable or
unexplained.
Let's not dilute "POLA". It's pretty good but you can apply it to anything.
I agree. Everytime FreeBSD is changing something in the base, there are
voices with "POLA". Removing Perl from base, removing BIND from base...
these were more significant changes than changing something in locales.
