Because a non-neutral filter would have to warp the project around itself to work at all, as has been detailed at length here (and everywhere). Thus, making the option available would carry significant side-effects. A neutral all-or-nothing image filter would not have such side effects (and would also neatly help low bandwidth usage). - d. _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list [email protected] Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
