The impetus for removing this extension is to simplify our codebase and remove code adds unnecessary complexity. This code was added as a fail safe when ERC721A was first written, but we've since added optimizations and other helpers that make this unnecessary. Like @Vectorized mentioned in the issue below, contract owners can use
_initializeOwnershipAt
at certain intervals to make transfers of large batch mints cheaper. Other than that scenario, it's not very necessary to explicitly set an ownership slot because the added cost of transferring an uninitialized slot isn't very high.#289
