Well, we *could* do a lot of things, but we can all spend out cycles
only once. Doing endless variations of statistics contributes to
death-by-a-thoudsand-cuts.

If you really think you need this, write yourself an eBPF program and
attach it to these tracepoints. Then you get less cycles for useful
work, but the rest of us isn't bothered by that.
