I do not. The whole uproar was because the original proposer, and a number
of other people piling on, took it as an attack on the concept instead of

people started thinking instead of blindly attacking, the problem was
quickly resolved.

Changes to bylaws will do nothing whatsoever about emotional mis-reactions.
