But the question was how much work it was doing a poll.  Kim explained
some of that: talking out which options to offer at a poll would be
what could be distracting now.

Implementing the change should be rather trivial, checking the callers
and seeing where their interactive arguments should likely be made to
follow suit is more work, changing the documentation throughout even
more, in particular since translations of refcard/tutorial might be
involved.
