minimumIdle - enhancement for dynamic pool size

The minimumIdle connection option was added recently.

See https://jira.mariadb.org/browse/CONJS-70

The "Connector/Node.js Promise API" page states for minimumIdle - "Recommendation is to use fixed pool, so not setting this value."

Can someone explain why we should not be using dynamic pool sizes? Is this feature just too new to use in production?
