Discussion? Probably at one stage or another between sailors on the beach. A serious proposal??? - not as far as I know.
Plenty of sailors single hand them up to around 12 knots. Above that they become a big handful. I did have to drop the kite, tack around and recover my crew who bailed out the back without hooking on once in around 25 kts. It was not particularly difficult however there was ***way*** too much power there for only 1 person.
