Correct.  The above is all assuming that "cone is the future" is
what is shared by the population that depends on sparse-checkout.  I
do not have strong opinions to declare that, but to help the topic
move forward, I was giving reviews under the condition, i.e. "If
there is such a concensus, here are the things in your current
iteration that would need to be addressed".

I vaguely recall there were folks who didn't like the change of
default the last time you brought this topic up.  Convincing them is
not my job---it is yours.  Mine has been to help prepare the code
ready for public consumption when that happens.
