If everybody must use it and hand-written disambiguation blocks are to
be "done away with," then I oppose it.

Given a mandatory XOR choice between

	"See also USS Enterprise (1775), USS Enterprise (1799),
	USS Enterprise (1831), USS Enterprise (1874),
	USS Enterprise (CV-6), and USS Enterprise (CVN-65)."

and the 1500-character disambiguation block at USS Enterprise -- which
not only mentions the Star Trek ships and the Space Shuttle and the ten
HMS Enterprises but also describes a schooner and a motorboat that are
not worth separate articles AND gives a couple of points of distinction
between the each of the eight ships -- then I choose the hand-written,
informative page.
