I was not aware of this (possibly because I only joined the foundation
around that time), but at least during the discussions I was part of, the
discourse solution seemed to be optimal in terms of
cost/usability/integrability.
It's up to you, of course, I personally find it convenient. We would
appreciate it if people would give it a chance :)

and vice versa?
Yes, this is still a target, we're working on this in parallel.

Thanks all, for your feedback! :)

Thanks,
Inbal Levi
