 Replying to [comment:6 dd32]:
 > > If a failure in table insertion occurs, on a core table, that could
 leave sites completely unusable.

 > Very few inserts exist which would result in that, and certainly very
 few in the upgrade routines. The proposal here doesn't actually add much,
 or any benefit to a user who ran into any such failure.

 fails, WordPress attempts using `false` as the ID here.." or "WordPress
 assumes query X always succeeds, however when it doesn't, it proceeds to
 perform Y which results in lost data".
