No objections. Reading your blog post and my copy of Linkers and Loaders it does seem that early linkers would handle archives with indexes, it just seems like indexes were ubiquitous when GNU ld were written. So it does seem like rejecting archives without an index is a property of the implentation of GNU ld rather than something that should be relied upon.
