I will say I worry there might be users depending on the bugs you've
fixed here, but I don't think that's a reason to not fix the bugs. We
can if needed deal with bug compatibility some opt-in way if required in
the future. And yes, this is a note to anyone in the future that has hit
upon the problem.
