Thanks, I think I understand your points better.

That doesn't mean that I agree with all of your points. :)

My suggestion/request is that this series please drop the OvmfPkg &
ArmVirtPkg patches for now, as it's obvious that my preferences cannot
"drive" the NetworkPkg changes, let alone the general, future rules (of
which NetworkPkg is just the first example).

Thus, I'd like to spare Siyuan the repeated updates to OvmfPkg and
ArmVirtPkg.

Instead, once the NetworkPkg changes are mature enough to exemplify the
future rules, and they are merged, we should file TianoCore BZs for
ArmVirtPkg and OvmfPkg, to adopt the new config knobs from NetworkPkg.
These BZs should be assigned to their respective package maintainers,
and they should be considered "best effort". I.e. ArmVirtPkg and OvmfPkg
will consume those new settings from NetworkPkg that they easily can,
and fall back to the explicit configuration everywhere else.

My request is that the NetworkPkg changes please remain backward
compatible, so that existing platforms not break even until they are
updated to take advantage of the new PCDs.

Thanks!
Laszlo
