Just as a side note, the comparison with python's BDFL isn't relevant 
IMO. I've followed quite some exchanges on python-dev, the 
"pronouncements" from Guido were quite rare, and (as far as I've seen) 
they were always a way of summarizing a consensus. During posts and 
posts, people had weighed up the pros and cons, given arguments and 
counter-arguments, provided use cases, personal experience... so minds 
converged.
Nothing like that here, it's just a cold (and barren) war between 
Reasons and too-spiritually-evolved-to-be-understood-by-mere-humans Dogmas.
