It would be a bad decision *if* OpenGL were the only technical solution
to the problem. There are a variety of possible solutions with various
pluses & minuses. If it is possible to do an implementation which uses
hardware acceleration for scaling to get the same level of performance
as the OpenGL proposal, it is good sense to evaluate it. Blindly going
for OpenGL when it has known problems without evaluating alternatives
would be the bad engineering decision.
