If you have time to read the issue thread about it, it's infuriating. There are multiple viable suggestions that are dismissed because they don't work in certain edge cases where it would be impossible for any method at all to work, and which they could simply fail gracefully for.

That kind of attitude in development drives me absolutely insane. See also: support for DHCPv6 in Android. There's a thread that has been raging for I think over a decade now
