It is a simple fix. So if this is a desire then it should be a one item stand alone HF, and not part of some other HF. Governments are great at putting in undesirable items in major bills to slow the process of legislation down, do the people in the world of Crypto in Steem Block Chain, want to be viewed as a Standard Governmental Operating Block Chain where they hide the undesirable with the desirable.
If it truly is a system that is decentralized and not Governmentized, then let the proposal stand on it's own merits in it's own HF, and then we will see if the People really wanted it.

Getting the whole ecosystem upgraded on a hard fork is too disruptive and difficult to do on a whim for every little change. I agree with you conceptually but from a practical perspective we are kind of stuck with one or two planned hardforks per year and have to make the best of it in terms of trading off what goes in them vs. what waits for six months or a year or longer.

Kind of like the last hard fork when Steemit.inc had an issue with it, an instant fix that was not a full fix was initiated and thus steem block chain was inaccessible for a day and a half, even after a few people saiad they should re-look at the numbers and make sure the rushed fix would not break anything, but nope, it was steemit's call and the witnesses call, and so instead of taking a good look they jumped the gun, and thus down time.
This is not the first time that steemit, or someone associated with steemit, has asked for and gotten what they wanted so why even bother, do they think they are fooling anyone? Take a look at the dPoll they had out for all of 12 hours and then they decided they had an overwhelming support so into the HF it went.
Good ole-boy network wins again.
I really do not think it is a bad idea, I totally think it is a bad idea the way it is being presented to the people/users of steem block chain. Like the American people, they may believe they are free, steemians may believe they are decentralized, but the reality is their is no difference between steemit, (running the HF's), and the US government running the legislation and making the laws. Americans are only as free as the government wants them to be, and steemians are only as decentralized as steemit.inc wants them to be.
At least they are not trying to make it a last minute addition to the HF, I guess they learned their lesson about last minute additions the last time. I ahve read and seen many people talk about the number of hardforks that happen, 2 or 3 hard forks a year in the life of steem block chain don't add up, we are going into HF22? I understand that there were a lot in the initial start of Steem Block Chain, and over the last two years only a couple, but a stand alone HF for a simple change of two numbers in the code is not the last time they said it would be an easy well tested, nothing should go wrong, and then the rush to fix it, it would have been better to have the two separate hard forks last year, the EIP, make sure it worked, then the other stuff.
So even though I do not think it to be a bad idea, it is completely different and separate from SMT's and it is my understanding the next HF is for SMT's. We do not need to be slipping in inappropriate changes to what the HF is supposed to be designed to do, any more than the government should not be slipping in inappropriate additions to bills to avoid them being down voted or vetoed.

The blockchain launched in March 2016, and HF16 was in December 2016, so literally there were 16 forks in the first year (9 months actually). Since 2017 (3 years) there have only been 6 hard forks, an average of two per year. A couple of those did nothing but fix emergency bugs so in reality the number of planned hard forks that can be used to improve the blockchain has been less than two per year.
