Yes.

I don't know that anybody is talking about force. I'm not sure what that would look like, in fact, given that anybody is free to write software that does whatever they think is sensible.

But discarding the option of using a different class at an over-general high level seems silly, too. Don't the operational considerations depend on the details?

Saying that using a non-IN class is a non-starter seems about as silly as saying that using a non-IN class is always the right thing.
