Aside from Bdale's reason for ranking unwanted options below FD—which
were motivated by the voting system—I do: GRs do not decide a matter
with prejudice, even though the weight to bring them again may be
substantial. Therefore, doing nothing is very similar to doing nothing
but talking more.

As we all heal from this divisive issue, I furthermore find it
meaningful that proponents of a shortened discussion, who were at
times accused of pushing the resolution, were actually aligned with
voters: By a narrow margin, people did not want to discuss the matter
at all.

Kind regards
Felix Lechner
