Looking at that commit, we can see that we have had more than two
years to discuss that design. It was available for comments in the
work versions, the alpha version, and the beta version of Lua 5.4. Now
that we are releasing Lua 5.4, we are focused on fixing bugs, not in
improving its design. After we finish this release, we can go back at
looking for improvements for the next version.

Thanks for the interest,
