I'm not sure I'd characterize what I tried to get across as debunking someone's
argument. More so, questioning whether somebody - who I do not recall having
participated in the prior discussions - should insist that we shut down this
one, especially when the other participants so far *have* been thinking about
this for a long time, and have not exhibited any untoward behaviour on this
occasion.

That's true. Reading mailing list archives can be a chore.
