Hello,
From the linked page:
A total of 173 users scheduled at least one, 81 users have at least two, one
specific user scheduled 91.5% of all of these.
That is surprising. What do those numbers look like if you zoom out to the past
6/12/24 months?
If you can count on one hand the number of users using >90% of the private
measurements over a longer timeframe than two weeks, then I submit that the choice
is clear.
I concur.

Cons
Users who were specifically using RIPE Atlas because of this feature will
stop using the service.
Other users may reduce / change their use of the service and perhaps
ultimately disengage completely.
As a result we could lose some connected probes, as their hosts no longer
see value in keeping them connected.
I suppose with such a small set of users of this feature, it should be
possible to intersect set of users vs. set of probe owners and see how
many probes would be affected in the worst case - if all of the users
withdrew all of their probes?
If it is not a _significant_ part of network, I would say ... "Nuke it
from orbit."
