Yeah, I think you nailed it. This DIP does seem to come from a 
'what is the smartest, most elegant system I can design' logic; I 
don't see much value in it as something that would solve problems.

That's not to say that the rationale should be explained better, 
or the examples should be different, or this or that paragraph 
should be tweaked. I think this proposal is fundamentally flawed 
for the reasons Jonathan M Davis outlined.
