Baseport 8 for X: If it's only about flashing....

Just read the recent blog post about the Xperia 10 and the statement about Baseport 8 for Xperia X:

we would have to create and maturize new HW adaptation for Xperia X and either stop supporting old adaptation or to support two adaptations for Xperia X. Supporting two different adaptions for same device would obviously be more work than just having one. If we’d only support new adaptation with SW updates would mean that old users would need to reflash their devices or they would stop getting updates.

Given that Jolla has resources to support at least one adaption:
If you ask me, drop the old HW adaptation!

I'd be happy to reflash more than once!**

Why not offer a paid upgrade to baseport 8? I'd take it...
