isValid returns true for SpelLoadBalancersMigration and there is no VALID_UNTIL set. Because of this, this migration runs regardless of the migration that were planning to run. I imagine the intent was originally to run this once, but in its current configuration, that is not true.

public class SpelLoadBalancersMigration implements Migration {
// Only valid until October 13th, 2021
private static final Date VALID_UNTIL = new GregorianCalendar(2021, 10, 13).getTime();

Sorry if I'm being dense, what's the significance of this date?

No apologies necessary, it was just the day before I opened this PR, no significance at all really.

I'm not familiar with migrations, is the intent that this migration should never run after this PR is merged and released? Is there a way to explicitly enable it after this PR?

Trying to understand if people on older versions of Spinnaker may have issues upgrading if this migration is skipped.

If you look at some other examples of how Netflix has done migrations, they usually do them 1 of 2 ways - the way that I've done it with a specific date or with a ConditionalOnProperty. The benefit to doing it with a date like this is that you don't have to put up another PR to your config after you're done running the migration to disable it.

That's a good question, this migration didn't actually do anything for us because we didn't have any pipelines (out of our thousands that we have) that met this condition.
Here are the PRs that should give a little more background on what the intent of this migration was for: #1025 and spinnaker/deck#8957

I think we'll have to wait for @ajordens verdict - I'm not sure if this is a minor issue or a migration everybody needs to do.
