No one is arguing it isn't easy to change.
The point is that this will only make things harder for new users
(mainly  from windows but also mac).
The point is also that this makes no one happy (or about %5 of users
IIRC the poll has disappeared or become hard to find)

All the arguments in favor are very weak or irrelevant.
"You can get used to it!" yes, but why?
"You can change it back!" yes, but why? Also newbies can't.
"I like it better this way!" most people --including current users--
don't.
"New features...!" can go on the left instead.
"Mark's baby...!" is our baby too, as in we love ubuntu too.
"But he pays for it" which is why we are arguing with him, not forcing
him.

I won't even make the argument that the new position is inherently bad,
the menu button has been on the left since forever and I hardly ever
click it inadvertently.

That's all, that's the end of it I'm unsubscribing to this bug. I don't
think there is much left to say.
