There is a difference between tweaking until they are perfect, and
allowing a little more time to get major improvements for which code
actually exists (Richard's commit message scripts).
If the go port of reposurgeon were still unfinished, or there were major
problems with the conversion that weren't understood, considerations might
be different. But the go port is fully functional and all the known
issues affecting tree contents are fixed; to the extent there are other
issues, they are less significant and also well-understood and should be
fixed soon.

It was also that doing it at the end of stage 3 would mean the least
disruption to development for stage 3. That suggests converting over the
weekend of 18/19 January, given the current stage 3 timings.
