Sure, you could re-engineer Asterisk so that it would be “better" for a small select group of users at the expense of the majority of community that use the product as designed for the purpose it was originally intended. However, you’re either very naive or delusional if you think the community is going to follow you down that path. Do you really believe the community is going simply chuck their dial plans and walk away from their investment in Asterisk? Not likely, dude.

My comment/question wasn't really about dial plans, per se.  My
question was about you insisting that Digium make such unqualified
promises about the future of Asterisk.  Even though Digium is a
private company, I believe that they are still bound by U.S. laws
regarding forward-looking statements[1].

So even if they wanted to (which I doubt), there's no way you're going
to get the promise that you're looking for.
