There are very valid reasons not to talk about auto-decoding
again:
- it's too late to remove because breakage
- attempts at removing it were _already_ tried
- it has been debated to DEATH
- there is an easy work-around
So any discussion _now_ would have the very same structure of the
discussion _then_, and would lead to the exact same result. It's
quite tragic. And I urge the real D supporters to let such
conversation die (topics debated to death) as soon as they appear.
why shouldn't users be allowed to give feedback?
Straw-man.
If we don't get over _some_ technical debate, the only thing that
is achieved is a loss of time for everyone involved.
