There is a D88827 <https://reviews.llvm.org/D88827> review which tries to move core implementation of llvm-objcopy into the Object library. So there is a request to avoid using custom solution in favor of more standard one. That is why I am trying to replace custom llvm-objcopy solution(D91028 <https://reviews.llvm.org/D91028>).

Ok, fair enough.

Seems reasonable, then. I would like to get a second opinion though..
