I think a lot of what I'm noticing is that packages I care about and rely on fall within those 2%, and sometimes they get marked as "broken" and left broken for longer than I'd like. But if the degree of impact is really that small, and if several of the breakages I'm seeing only affect darwin, then I'll just keep doing what I have been doing, and fix the breakages as they come up.
