Absolutely.

I must say that my interest in this stuff is down in
needs-an-electron-microscope-to-locate territory.  down() and up() work
just fine and they're small, efficient, well-debugged and well-understood. 
We need a damn good reason for taking on tree-wide churn or incompatible
renames or addition of risk.  What's the damn good reason here?

Please.  Go fix some bugs.  We're not short of them.
