There are two different statements, first, code being not ready, I agree
a fair point (although there is no argument to that statement, it makes
hard to discuss this, I will put aside this), this implies when code is
ready it can go in to repo.
But not having kernel module, independent from their state against what
they are trying to replace is something else. And this won't help on KNI
related problems.
