The reason is they can do whatever they want. Some project leader says: "I want this" and they will do it. They won't care about our upstream choice at all. And then what, you change it again? If downstream was caring, then they could pick as well aliases which we already committed. To remind: the downstream was released 3 years ago! So the downstream DTS is long past "beta" phase and should be considered stable. If they keep changing the aliases after three years, then they can keep doing it for next 20 years.
