You didn't hear the foaming at the mouth shouting to rename master recordings, master documents, or dub over The Master from Dr. Who.

Considering how much effort we had to out into fixing pipelines because of hardcoded scripts, and the lack of good reason to do it its no surprise that it was scoffed at. White keyboard warriors needed to make a change, but couldn't do anything meaningful as it would require actually doing something.

At least this change makes sense.
