Comment:
Hi Hasan. Thanks for the input.
I'm inclined towards `wontfix` here. A couple of reasons:
* As per Tim's point, I'm not at all convinced that `-1` is definitely
singular. (Like "maybe" but I can't say either is wrong.)
* As
[https://github.com/django/django/pull/9932#pullrequestreview-118467505
Simon commented on the PR] it breaks BC, and (per above) it's marginal at
best, so not worth it.
I'm going to close on that basis. If someone wants to make the case and
re-open, I guess I'm happy to look again.
