Advisability

The rule of thumb is that whatever functionality does not currently exist will either take a very long time to be implemented or never appear. The number of developers is small, the number of things that need to be fixed is huge, and the number of divergent opinions on the advisability of any particular measure is also large, meaning that discussion will take a long time and often not lead to a result.
