That's a good question. Benjamin, I remember that, a few years back,
you had user research numbers with "what users want". At the time, if my
memory serves, it was largely about video stability.

Do you have updated numbers?

Note that, as far as I can tell, re-thinking our APIs and API boundaries
is useful not just for Go Faster but for all front-end works.

Cheers,
 David
