Well, it's hard to argue what that :)

So in conclusion:

 1. I agree with you. We shouldn't try to protect against fingerprinting
    at all.
 2. If we want to protect against fingerprinting, I still advocate
    tackling it in a consistent manner instead of tackling each API
    point on its own.
