I agree with Russ in this instance, which may b surprising to some given
how I approached the systemd GR.

I think that we will likely find people to sponsor something close to
all of Steve's options.
And I think that allowing those people to craft the wording of those
options will give them the best chance of winning.

I also agree with this exception.
