Maybe it would end up fine “in the long run” but you cannot ignore the significant issues arising at the beginning (and at each release of a more performant tool): what do you do if you find something that “shouldn't be there".
That's exactly what I'm talking about when I say “in the long run” the problem comes in the meantime (and no, I don't think people in the present should endure bad things because it's going to make the future better).
