I'm speaking of keeping the "more" command, per se, but replacing its guts with those of "less". I don't know of any important feature "more" has that "less" lacks (save maybe better support for certain very obsolete tty's). Some of the command line options are probably different, but that's trivial. I don't think many people would be disappointed if the upstream provider of "more" switched to a better source base. Even just a stripped-down version of "less" would be an improvement.
