What's the other alternatives? Removing the package isn't less
invasive. Blocking transition to testing is slightly less invasive, but
we don't want to end up with packages that languish in unstable forever
either. Doing nothing is less invasive, but does not get us to where we
want to be. :-)

Agreed, it's a discussion, not an announcement.
