So, let me get this straight.

You're saying "let's do nothing until the entire system breaks because
of a component that nobody really cares about, so that we can _then_ try
to start a procedure which will take weeks (if not months) to maybe
unbreak it, leaving the system in an utterly broken state in the
meantime?"

I seriously question that logic.

If it starts pointing toward space you are having a bad problem and you
