Note that we've always ignored about 90% of this page with no ill effects for either us or GNU. Which is really my position on the whole thing: the adults in this project have always treated requests from GNU the same way we treat requests from any other community member- if it makes sense, we do it; if it doesn't make sense, we ignore it. Usually we ignore it quietly. I will try to refrain from speculating as to why this particular suggestion was ignored so loudly, but I'd suggest that quietly is better.
