I’m at least 90%, “Meh, whatever “ for the proposal as long as it doesn’t 
become a recommendation to filter the extended communities by default.  For 
purposes of the adoption poll, consider this a conditional abstention. 

The last 10% of my opinion is formed by the fact that extended communities have 
built-in scoping whereas large communities do not. 

There’s room for legitimate griping about policy tools to use extended 
communities, but those are implementation details.
