Why do you insist on threats of reverting being the only efficient
means of communications about these matters?  This is supposed to be a
collaborative effort, not a confrontation.

If we are going to have a special command for upgrading core packages
(and it currently looks like we are), then having an additional
Eglot-specific command for a similar purpose would be against our
common goal of having a UX that changes as little as possible, given
the restrictions.  What else can I say to express clearly that I would
like such a command to not be installed?
