    What is so bad about the developers delegating this away?

    Developmental drift and code rot. Both parties can try their best to keep up with changes and adjustments, but an external resource is always going to lag behind of core. This isn’t necessarily bad, but having it in core at least kind of ensures that future development and updates have to take into account how those things are affected.
