But IMO Jakub's comment about technical debt is not addressed by pushing dstref all over the tunnel code.I understood it differently. I thought the aforementioned debt referred to maintaining two different APIs that accomplish the same result, which is why I took the time to replace all callers in all of the tunnels to use the new API, and removed the old API. Maybe Jakub can clarify.
True, my direct complaint was about only converting a subset of tunnels. But as Eric said you seem to have gone too far in the opposite direction now :(
