I have heard arguments like this before.

``The solution is temporary.''
``But we will replace this with the correct stuff in a few
days/weeks/months/years.''

10 years passes quickly has been my experience and I rather have a good
solution than one which fills the gap for 10 years now and that we get
this entire revisitation 10 years from now.

But that's my personal belief and observations.
