The adaptable required isn't that big and the patchset already proposes significant amount of behavior change. Sure it'd be a bit more hassle but does that really justify introducing yet another operation mode? This is why unified hierarchy is being added in the first place. One can argue "but *I* just need this specific part changed" but allowing combinations of all those little variations is gonna lead us to a hellish place.
