Then that native implementation should be removed or treated separately.
But native implementations should be preferred over external libraries
by default.

registrations to the separate block below the native ones.  That one
specific encoder sucks is not reason enough to override this policy
decision.

Why wasn't improving the Vorbis encoder a SoC project?
