Comment (by seedsca):

 As somebody that has been using WordPress since 2006 or so and helps
 maintain hundreds of high traffic websites, I'm really appreciating the
 time and energy that is going into implementing this. It, hopefully, won't
 break many many sites or cost lots of money to unsuspecting users. Maybe
 it'll be a cost to them in the form of developer time to add a very simple
 bit of code to disable this feature.

 I don't know of a single person who decided to go with this CMS over
 others because it's fast (and it can easily be made fast). Everybody I've
 heard from is here because of the options, ability to customize, and
 awesome community. I truly hope this makes WordPress faster and even
 better. However I fear it may break enough sites to cause bad press and an
 exodus to other CMSs. All for what, in my opinion, seems like a features
 pushed prematurely/forcefully.

 Please be careful with this tool that has helped democratize publishing
 for so many and sorry for this possibly nonconstructive comment but I feel
 this needed to be said.
