Brian,

To me, this "reality" would be akin to acknowledging a serious bug but
simply marking it "will not fix" instead of actually fixing it. Both
the detrimental consequences of EH insertion and conformant
alternatives to it have been articulated several times on this list,
but we've seen little effort from the extension header insertion
proponents to take those into account or to work with WG to resolve
the issues.
