 because you know what you're doing ;)

 SIP can be turned off, but I recommend you don't do that.

 Yes, I know about SIP and how to turn it on and off, but for the obvious
 reasons hesitate to do so. So:
  (1) Is there to be some other workaround?
 (2) In case I dare to turn off SIP temporarily...

 Is it literally just the several instances of {{{ 'defined(__has_feature)'
 }}} that have to be replaced?  I ask because in Availability.h there are
 other mentions of "availability", such as in
 {{{'#if __has_feature(attribute_availability_*)'}}} where what follows
 {{{'availability'}}} could be {{{'twos'}}}, {{{'watchOS'}}},
 {{{'app_extension'}}}, etc.
