There are so many reasons why I wouldn't have done this nowadays:

- Don't implement a feature

- Don't rely on a hack that could change

This obviously requires contextualization and I naturally assume it was stated with that context implicit, but I'm not entirely sure what the connotation is. Don't implement OS-level features, so when the OS (re)does them (potentially better, notwithstanding incompetence) you die?
