You're suggesting that a transcript or summary of those discussions
is available. Can you cite? Thanks.

I suggested neither one, so I am a bit puzzled about how you inferred
that. What I wrote was, "In fact, there was a protracted discussion
right here in IBM-MAIN about how we should implement this support, well
in advance of its actual appearance, led by the designer. I am
reasonably confident that you can find in that discussion why it was
done as it was, if you care to look."
The IBM-MAIN archives are searchable, here:

If you are sufficiently interested, you can find the discussion.
