I stand by what I wrote. Making a behaviour optional is no excuse for
not thinking through what the default behaviour should be. Unloading the
thinking on the user is just developer laziness. Arguing about what the
value should be is constructive. Declaring "Change the value and move
on" OTOH deserves more dirty words than I am able to muster in English.
You're not doing the project any service by reacting like this.
I merely opined in the same vein. You were taking an extremely strong,
vehement stance without offering any supporting data aside from your
opinion.
That you considered responding further with "dirty words" gives me a
good indication of the essential logic of your position.
Since it should be obvious that I subscribe to the list, you do not need
to send me a personal copy of this dialogue.
