But FWIW the proposal is indeed not about "forcing", or not even "recommending" to do hotlinking as maintainer of whatever service with a web UI. It's rather about having a recommended way to do hotlinking for those who want to do that; nothing more than that. I, as a service maintainer, would love not to have to worry about having to change a logo (or, in fact, the visual theme of the service at all, but that's more tricky). I totally understand others might have different preferences than mine.
