But no one has said to do what they recommend just because they say
so. Everyone cited reasons for their recommendations.

No one said now or quickly. All said that it will happen some time and
gave reasons why converting sooner might be better than later. One
factor in my decision was realizing that, as I accumulated more
mysql_() code, it meant that the inevitable conversion would be bigger
chore than if I did it sooner.

No one said direly needed.

No one said that the server admins would not give you warning. What
you do NOT know is how much warning you will get COMPARED to how long
it will take you to convert. That's why I wrote that it is a
non-trivial task. It took many steps, and I found little guidance. The
project ultimately worked out okay, but I can easily imagine having
gotten desperately stuck. If I had waited until there was an actual
deadline, that could have been a nightmare.

Thanks.
