My objection to this is weaker than for other ideas. My objection is more because of the sharing of vars. which may create the habit of doing the same thing at a higher scope. Practically though, it's not that big an issue to me. I raise my one itty, bitty vote nay, the yays may carry the day. One another note, bloated software happens because many people like the cool ideas and not enough people will stand against (call it apathy if you like) I feel the need to raise objections often just to be on the record. I generally don't regret my record.
