Who cares? I talked to one of those creators @ google a little while
back. In response to some of my probing on "what if we change this" he
said, "well, we're pretty much out of it, you can do what you deem
necessary".

Sure, there are a few rules you ought to follow. Don't go the path of
Linux and add a system call every time you need something new. But,
the code is not Holy Writ. It's code. Change it and learn.
