Change is bad unless it is great.

Don't make changes just because your designers need something to do. When you make design changes your customers must immediately love it, if not it is a bad change. When it comes to design, there is no such thing as a "good change", there are only bad changes (the default) and great changes.

I agree with this. Taking on a "UI overhaul" of something folks don't see as a problem is just inviting them to try other tools. A lot of devs love using Github already - why up-end them?
