Choice is only a good thing if both options have their merits. A shotgun that is only aimed near my feet isn't a choice with merit.

Wang Liyu I am not asking to remove the normal core or servlet jars. I am asking to remove the shaded alternatives. Or rename their artifactId's to clearly indicate that they are shaded.

Those shaded jars keep coming in our dependency tree's, because our developers confuse them for the normal ones.
