I think it's more than two years ago so I don't remember having a
strong opinion about it, it was actually me posting for guidance, not
being blocked by Phil as usual.
The response was mixed so the main reason for delivering the files was
that the source did so and my package already did so I just kept doing
it, not because I absolutely didn't want it another way.
With these new complications ahead I would much rather just remove the
files from the package.
