I recently flagged a question to be migrated to [Raspberry Pi][1].

> [Backup data rate on Raspberry Pi maxing out at 5 Mb/s. Why?](http://superuser.com/questions/455541/backup-data-rate-on-raspberry-pi-maxing-out-at-5-mb-s-why)

But it was declined with the following explanation.

> don't really migrate to betas to allow them to organically plant their feet

I really don't think that this applies in this situation though as the Raspberry Pi site is currently 49 days into public beta. While the question was asked _yesterday_.

If this question was asked three months ago, _before_ Raspberry Pi entered public beta I could see, and would even agree, with the reason behind it's decline.

However in this case, we have a brand new question asked on site A when it is more relevant to site B. Why not migrate it?

The same approach is taken with [Code Review][2] and [Stack Overflow][3]. Stack Overflow migrates questions that are on-topic for Code Review to them, even though they are still in public beta.

In conclusion, _why not migrate?_ `/rant`
