I thought that pro-active anti-troll interventions that might help
forestall vulnerable groups being harassed were suggested as Best
Practice by several debian contributors?

Personally, I consider them obnoxious and counter-productive, but
few were willing to support that position last time I told it to
a debian list. I'm surprised to see such strong objection now. Is
it because "troll alerts" are daft or because of who posted it?
