 Not sure if this was necessary.. Seems like a low blow.

 As for the ticket, I do agree that the taxonomy issues should be addressed
 either way. But IMO configuration should never be stored in CPT/CT, core
 and other plugins should architect in such a way that treasures proper
 database architecture and separation over ease of API. I speak with large
 projects in mind, recently which have had to deal with some plugins
 storing certain types of config as post types and meta, where the DB had
 millions of rows in posts/postmeta, and was slowing down the page
 needlessly, even if cached (during generation of initial cached value).
