"Happy" is not the correct word, but let's just go over with it. Maybe
like this:

I do understand the use case. I even agree it makes sense to have
something like this. It is just that I'd prefer a generic, widely

be named. Not a custom solution which, frankly, feels forced on me
by time pressure I have nothing to do with. So, not happy here, but also
not looking for drama. Let's move on...
