Well, no. There is always a possibility.
We can detach the Wikitech contributors prototype development from any content migration and leave mediawiki.org undisrupted during this first phase.
Wikitech has the basic software we need to build a prototype quicker and easier. Life in mediawiki.org would continue as it is. Everybody would be welcome to join the experiment but nobody would be forced to.
If/when the prototype is ready we can discuss about next steps with a better common understanding.
