Either it _has_ a tiny performance impact
or it _might_ have a performance impact
But qualifying a performance impact, that has not been measured, as
'tiny' up-front, is 'begging the question'.
(note: it is quite possible that the impact, if any, is
tiny/negligible... I'm just objecting to the biased wording of the
statement of 'fact')

I'm quite confused as to what was meant by this quote.

No regression for any document that does not rely on these features today ?
(note: This is not a rhetorical question. I honestly do not know if
these options only impact the UI or if they also can impact the way a
document is rendered)

Note: I have no strong feeling either way.
But I'd prefer if the discussion center on practical and technical
aspect rather than politically correct ones.
