I think this is a valid option.

This is also my question. The answer is probability: nobody knows
because nobody has done the unification yet. So can we please start
some real work? Do we have a grammar everybody agrees upon? If the
syntax and the semantics are fixed we can start developing the code
(either in parallel or together) (either based upon the current code
or from scratch).
