Thanks Julian for the detailed response.
I would like to add that while I clearly see the risks.
But the benefit of having the API availalbe in lucid now for the next
lucid->lts+1 upgrade outweigh them IMO.
Otherwise for lucid->lts+1 we will have to write the upgrader code against a
different API for next-lts-1->next-lts
and lucid->lucid+1. Or maintain the deprecated API for 5 more years.
