It's easy to say "this is old news" but as a non-expert, I have no idea if you are an expert, or just some random blowhard.

I did a quick search but, once again, as a non-expert, I have no idea what to search for and don't see any solid results showing one way or another. I didn't downvote you, but if you make a claim and back it up with an interesting link, that tends to do a lot better.
