Again, that's part of the larger discussion, not a response to my
proposal to restore the initial conditions.
Even after you claim it to be an objection, I still fail to find
relationship between proposal and alleged objection. Nothing replaced
the original joke. It's still there. Which is just as it should be in
the absence of consensus about the larger issue, both before and after
the removal patch was installed.

Err..., in "if it was even read", it's not my read, I'm wondering if
anyone else actually read it.
