Be careful what you ask for.   The people who you consider to be ideologically 
opposed to you have actually tried to engage constructively with you to figure 
out if there's a middle ground where you get what you need without us losing 
what we need.   If you want to make this about ideology, it's pretty clear that 
there is no consensus to adopt this work.   So if this work matters to you, you 
need to figure out how to make it not about ideology.   A good start would be 
to stop accusing the people who disagree with your current approach of being 
ideologues.
