What attitude? I am simply stating a fact. How much percentage of people do you think still have .git/remotes around? How many people do you think have clones more than 3 years old? And how many of these people would complain if remotes were not properly completed for these repos? I doubt anybody would have complained, but I guess we would never know, because I already proposed a solution that would work for them and only uses a *single* line of code, unlike the current 40 ones. I don't see what is the problem with the attitude of sending a patch to remove code that most likely nobody cares about (neither you or I have numbers on this), and then finding an alternative when people do care about it.
