Because I don't want to invest any significant effort in maintaining
the unexec build. It should remain as close to its original shape as
possible, until it's gone.

He said he already dropped that in the branch where he works, so that
is AFAIU a moot point. (And if he didn't drop it already, he can drop
it now in that branch.)

Not yet, we don't have enough experience without it.
