You said:

   It seem much more intelligent to add a package owners of floppies can
   install, so that 99.9% of the others do not have to wait forever for no
   reason.

To me, that reads as "99.9% of non-floppy owners have to wait forever".

In any case, instead of arguing semantics, can you answer my actual
question?  How many systems hang when floppy.ko is loaded?  If it is a
large number, it should be easy to point to lots of data.
