I am against adoption. I am against introducing a collection of
standards-track extension statements without answering the question
who controls, enforces and reviews the usage of these extension
statements (when and how are they used). Some statements and tags are
either addressing issues caused by underspecified YANG modules or they
overlap with the deviation mechanism that we have in place since day
one of YANG. Others are very vaguely specified, it is unclear how they
will lead to interoperable behavior. If module authors are too lazy
to use existing YANG mechanisms properly, does it make sense to add
more mechanism to the YANG eco system? I doubt it.
