Paging @mattyglesias to amplify. He had some good recent ideas about where to get railroad management expertise from. (Hint: not cargo rail, not air travel)
A TV show I would love to watch is a railway construction crew is brought in from Spain or Finland to the US and has to work with an American crew on some railway project. Lots of scenes where inefficiencies are surfaced and the foreigners shake their heads in disbelief

But R Core (has to) value stability, the proposal is a breaking change :-/
When I used Windows (decades ago) I did what @obrl_soil described :
- use, say, R:/opt/R/R-4.1.0 with version
- place R:/opt/R/library/ next to it to persist
- set $HOME
Still works...

Yes. Better yet, `install.packages()` can pull in .deb binaries (!!) with over 5k Ubuntu LTS binaries, or, for those who prefer Fedora or OpenUSE, even ~ 16k binaries. Pre-made, with proper depends.
See eg arxiv.org/abs/2103.08069 and the useR talk by @Enchufa2 and me

Yes, from/with Emacs via the standard modes supporting, and using the free version only which croaks every now and then about max repo / code size.
Integration works well and is actually ... quite impressive if creepy. Works for 'all' languages not just #rstats.

Call Rcpp.package.skeleton("RcppFarmHash")
Copy farmhash.{h,cc} into its src/ dir.
Build it.
Almost done: add more interface functions.
