My opposition is that you're pushing for highly complicated architecture
that is hard to understand and it complicates simple things incredibly.
There *will* be bugs (you yourself have updated the RRs so many times
already) and there will be *nobody* to look after those bugs and solve them.

I don't want to introduce unnecessary complexity into code that nobody
will maintain. That would just be irresponsible.
