As a result, you'll be causing dozens of FTBFS bugs just before the feature freeze. I think this is entirely the wrong time in the release cycle to do such a change, if it is done at all. (In fact, I still think we're breaking backwards compatibility for no good reason, and in addition, the combination of this "feature" and our distrowide packaging policy which dictates removing .la files causes massive amounts of API incompatibility with upstream projects. It's sad that FESCo rushed this through within seconds with only one -1 vote (mine), entirely ignoring my strong objections and seemingly unaware of the number of affected packages (which surprised even me, it's even worse than I had expected), and that any attempt to discuss this further was met with "we've already moved on to the next feature".)
