Its somewhat hard for folks to offer comparative benchmarks when you
remove something. Without any numbers at all showing why your elevator
is superior, removing anything seems very premature.
I'm also not convinced that removing an elevator at all is a good idea,
as it'll cause regressions for anyone who has boot scripts that set
certain mounts to use deadline for eg.
