Without reference we're all shouting in the void.

I actually chuckled at this line :-D

But that will not happen, will it?

I don't think improving the ffmpeg CLI tools shows any "disregard for
users" and having code in parallel shows a lot of respect to fellow
developers since it makes our life easier. You seem fixed on a crusade of
keeping the status quo, but the consensus you speak of is instead to move
forward. Yes some very minor use cases might break or see degraded
performance, but that's the point of a development branch - so that we can
all improve the code before the next stable release

See? this is what i mean, you're still in 2011. It's time to move on
Nicolas, for your own sake, and for respect to your fellow developers and
the users you hold so dear
