I just want to distinguish the causalities in the various arguments that
are being made. There are many ways to approach this, two of which
could be:
We want MAC => SELinux is the only proven way to implement MAC => let's

or
SELinux is way too complex => We don't take the patch => Figure out the
MAC issue some other way
