This seems like an unwarranted extrapolation. If you read the meeting
log the decision wasn't taken on any broad ideological basis like this.
It was just a fairly pragmatic 'is it totally ready for f14 or would it
be better to give it a bit more time and have it in f15' question (which
was in fact very close, the vote failed by one).
