"difficult" is really a bit of an euphemism here. Asking for a proof or
metrics for something totally new, never implemented, implementing a
change potentially impacting a rather larger variety of tools and users
is not only pointless, but shows a seriously flawed process.

We have:

   1. common practice (the meta generator is only used for marketing)
   2. impact on editing tools and filters (I suspect none will change
      or only a minority and I suspect you'll never really know)
   3. impact on web authors (most won't care IMHO)
   4. impact on users (that's where there's a disagreement AFAIU)

That's all we have. No evidences, no metrics, just thoughts,
nothing more.
