My general view is that it could be used for migrating people to
``@safe`` by default. Would require a couple of editions to do this.
If we are not planning how to do this, I can understand the negative
reactions to it.
If we are wrong about it having migratory benefits, we can always
disable it and no modules in a edition would break. So I'm not seeing a
down side to trying it.
If we are indeed wrong, the fact that it doesn't have an attribute (yes
it could be in ``core.attribute``!) would negate any benefit it has of
helping people to transition since it will not be selective.
