+ok, say a distro has 200 packages that use python, for a total of 20,000 *.py files. 
+now what, the limited resources of a distro should be used to "patch optimally" the first line of all those 20,000 *.py files, just because this would mean to use a common policy?
+_regardless_ of the fact that those files actually run?
+
+this is so crazy in practice that... I don't know what to say. I'm refraining myself from saying things I'd regret.
