--- Comment #26 from Michael Schwendt (Fedora Packager Sponsors Group)

This is _not_ about forcing people.

It is about trying to give hints and general guidance beyond following existing
guidelines. "People" are free to ignore such advice.

It is my experience that patch is safer than sed without guards, and it would
not be the first time a packager is bitten by a failing sed match. A worst-case
example is a lazy sed subst that fails to replace something that enters the
built executables "silently" without making the build fail (e.g. paths, config
changes). So, guards are a good thing. Add them where you see the benefit.
