I cannot support this proposal until more clarity is given on the included changes to storage cost - discussion here. Or, at least some real timeline is given on storage subnets.

Incredible that Dfinity would slip in something as consequential as this change without prior notice to the community.

There are no changes to storage costs in this replica version.

I see this in the release notes.

Diego addressed my immediate concerns here regarding the above code change. I feel fine moving forward with this for now.

Right, but as the commit says, it’s hidden behind a feature flag, so there is no functional change.
