I prefer this too, and I've proposed trying this.

But kats convinced me that this isn't a decent option right now,
because this would disable a lot of coalescing, and we don't have the
capacity to handle this.  It's possible that we'd have enough
capacity, but end up shifting load to the time when the sun is over
the Pacific ocean, but even that isn't great, since it significantly
increases the turn-around time for landing patches.

Anyway, RyanVM wanted us to limit discussion here to a yes/no vote on
his proposal, and I think we should respect that.
