To set expectations here, we are beyond the end of source breaking changes for 
Swift 3, so they cannot be changed for Swift 3.  We plan to have ways to take 
limited source breaking changes in Swift 4, but don't know the scope of them 
because we haven’t designed the mechanism, and don’t know what scope it will 
allow.

This is all a way of saying that we *cannot* change this right now, and that 
discussing it is pointless.
