Comment (by dmsnell):
thanks for clarifying @youknowriad — given the focus on “generated code”
and treating these like dependencies, I misread your opinion on the
majority of files that aren’t in that category.
I’m approaching this pragmatically, so evidence is what I’m trying to
follow rather than arguments, and the evidence shows that breakages are
still widespread and unknown. I appreciate philosophical arguments about
code structure when things are normal. the only argument I’m holding to is
that it’s incumbent upon myself to perform due-diligence to avoid breaking
things for others, and if I do, to work to undo that damage so it doesn’t
needlessly harm everyone else.
please know that I have been trying to remain factual in this ticket and
find ways to mitigate the damage from the build change while accommodating
your change as much as possible. the best way to convince us all is by
fixing the things that broke — you’ve done a great job at fixing some of
those things, but perhaps the scope of impact of this change was simply
much bigger than anticipated.
