What I think the three different replies to this comment indicate is that crudely thinking “how many resources go to this thing?” is, in itself, neither necessary nor sufficient to deem something a high priority. We need a fuller story about the nature of the problem, it’s scale, potential solutions, obstacles, and the rest. I don’t think anyone has tried to do that for this issue, which is why I’d like someone to dig into it.
This strikes me as an issue where it’s not obviously high priority, but because it’s not obvious, it is worth researching further to see if it is.
