Why would I intend less argument?
Really, I do want this topic to be explored and I'm not disregarding it
at all.  I am merely saying it should be discussed with participation of
the developers.  The only way of "succeeding" is going through them,
anyway.  And it seems unfair to bring up the issue here, where they
can't comment on why things have stayed the way they are.  Maybe the
only reason some parts of Emacs haven't been updated is because of
missing man power.  Who knows?  Maybe you can start on those 4 hours of
query-replace, then.
