I think there is disagreement about this (including at least some
maintainers thinking differently), but I'm of the opinion that while
there has been discussion about stopping using core-updates, people
should follow the currently documented process, and for now that's still
using staging/core-updates [1].

As for reverting it, I'm somewhat indifferent. I'm more interested in
the longer term cost of making changes like this than the temporary
drops in substitute availability.
