You can, yes. But how does that move things forward at all? This is not supposed to be a popularity contest. I mentioned the large pile of scripts because _every one of them would have to be changed_ to have a working system. By contrast, there are two configuration files mentioned so far that refer to /usr/sbin/node.

How is this different from upgrades to all the other packages that can potentially break? There is nothing to do for this but test upgrades and caution users to be more careful about them. Users in this situation really should not upgrade until ready. [...] > If it were "easy" to get an exception, why has this not already happened? Because you did not ask for one. Instead you have been wasting time arguing and defending against an opponent you seem to assume is not going to care or listen to you.
