Sure. To be clear, I think this change is fine to proceed, especially
given we're less than a week into feature freeze and have plenty of time to
stabilize any cfbot breakage. If anything, this change should _help_
stabilize v18. I do wonder if we should be more cautious about these kinds
of changes closer to release dates, but that's not a concern here.
