While there are cases where it is largely superfluous, we also have plenty of cases in here that are genuinely experimental features and generally shouldn't be enabled unless someone is prepared for some hacking. We can of course replace this with an arch-specific option if needed, but I disagree with suddenly making experimental features suddenly appear to be anything other than what they are.
