Uhmmmm ?  The world isn’t that black and white. Additionally, flag days are bad 
as it turns production quality and certified solutions into “old crap” on a 
single unfortunate day in the future these deployments have no reason to 
monitor or track now.

It is as no one remembered these discussions we had a number of times now. 
Environments with KSK and ZSK split might find it hard to guarantee this - even 
if they could, it inserts a human component in a protocol flow where no human 
is needed now. And the reason for doing so have not convinced many people on 
this list.

There is no consensus and it is time to drop this idea.
