what's the point of talking about thing you're never going to write/finish
even if it was accepted?

Or even bikesheds are in short supply now?


have you considered calling it eBPF++ or BPF128?

at any rate, don't claim the sky is falling on the grounds that I think
your proposal is far fetched

if you think you've got a great idea and have a need for it, then write it
and use it - if other people adopt it, even better

all the best to your endeavors and don't let the naysayers hold you back
