I still think those observations are true, particularly the “we don’t have the resources to help get 4.7 out, so we shouldn’t tinker with it.” But that point is infinitely debatable. It comes down to personal (and business) comfort.

Better to launch in 4.6 and port up when we get some breathing room. I hope. Yeah, but we’re too far down a development path to pull up and try to hit 4.7 as a target.

I hope.

I think you'll find that working in 4.7 will solve more problems than it creates, and the longer you linger on an older codebase (especially developing custom code around it, which is much easier to separate cleanly in 4.7), the harder time you will have keeping up, hence the advice to move now before folks get nice and settled in an (old) environment.
