Would the Arch Linux forums ever switch to Discourse? (self.archlinux)

Currently, the Arch Linux Forums uses FluxBB which, while it does work, is rather dated, and could use a fresh coat of paint. The hot forum software of the day seems to be Discourse. Does Arch Linux have any interest in switching to that?

Less control, total change in moderation abilities, bowing to the whims of discourse changes, and lots more.
