Ah, right, we slashed all the 10.3 compatibility code a while back,  
shortly after 1.0 branched.

*nod* Okay, I'm convinced.  See, you really had to twist my arm. :P   
I'd forgotten that the old compatibility code had been removed

forcing the requirement up wouldn't make too much sense immediately
