Can I see any value? Perhaps in the long run.
For now, it's taken two weeks to pretty much get back to where we were IMO.
One could argue that they could have been better spent on other things,
such as speeding up interface invocations or optimizing synchronization
etc. Plus, we now have new dependencies on tools which we did not
have before. But then again, in the long run we'll have to see whether
we ultimately benefit.
