Why have [[WP:HRT]] used in this way at all? Just make the template
namespace subject to FlaggedRevs. Then you're looking more at protecting
templates so widely used that changes will have a cache-update hit.
That's a performance-driven decision, not a 'political' one

isolate it to the template namespace, and look for recent reverts and

bit like locking the stable door after the horse has bolted.
Given that WP:HRT is explicitly case-by-case, someone needs to make a case.
