I think these are really two different questions.
a) we decided not to provide fallback implementations
b) the question whether to drop the namespace imports or not.
We can decide to do the second, but in my opinion (b) is not implied
by (a). The argument for !(b) was that it is not much effort for us
and it make life easier for users who experiment with unsupported
compilers. Thus these decision don't contradict.
