Your reasoning for shutting it down is the opposite of what should happen. At the very worst, it means reformatting of the format being used for the requests to increase their efficiency. High initial cost, very low long-term cost, so long as it's done whole-hog and not politicians-being-pricks-half-assed. Eating a cost is always better than fucking people over. Every time. Every mother fucking time. We need to stop letting people get fucked over under the perceived benefit of saving money. Fuck that philosophy with a nuke.
