Of course there are more important things, and I'm trying to focus
on that as well (5.0 features missing in the handbook comes to mind).

But that doesn't mean one can't put in less important stuff too,
especially when the work has been done already :-)

In this case, the contributors guide won't get smaller.  That's
why I think it would be good to make a consistency change now,
because the potential repo bloat would be much bigger.
