We worry too much about that. I don't mind bikeshedding so much as bikeshedding *about* bikeshedding.

I don't think anyone *has* anything to say about the real meat of the original post beyond just "Yes, sounds good, +1, etc." There's nothing anyone disagrees with, there's nothing anyone is uncertain or unclear about, and therefore there is nothing to say on those matters. Discussion only occurs when there *isn't* universal understanding and agreement.
