I would argue it is still a reasonable action. The PR in question should have been as mundane as any SEO-related dead link cleanup action. Fact is, the account is dormant (whether that’s by neglect or sabotage doesn’t really matter after 2 years) and a dead link to a dormant account is prominently displayed on the website. People chose the PR in question and this RFC to push their viewpoints regarding whether the PHP project should even have that account. And I dare say the voting on this RFC was swayed by that bias, especially given the language of the RFC itself. The reality is the presence of the link on the PHP website and the presence of the PHP project on (any) social media platform is two separate discussions and should have been approached as such. Instead, we got the mess that has played out over the last few weeks.
