Right, that is what I was implying. For the Stacked teams sake I didn't make it out to be a certainty because unexpected issues arise.
So to bring some assurance I said "Hopefully less strings break in non launcher upgrades". At the very least Mark has figured out how to better deal with them on a case per case basis rather than manually giving each user a fix.
My statement is not to say the strings might not be fixed once and for all, I suppose that is possible.
