Are you being deliberately misleading or do you just not read?
No one is suggesting penalizing *anyone*. What was suggested
was a compile time option so sites could choose based on their
needs. Creating some strawman that this penalizes some section
of users is just plain disingenuous or an indication of an inability
to read.
Like by your logic we should eliminate SMP because it
will slow down non-SMP users who are "penalize" for having to use
it. This line of reasoning is severly flawed.
