Some weeks ago, you started a discussion here about "Clearer

For me, the canonical guidelines for the use of this list are

May I suggest that hijacking a thread to discuss something unrelated at length is neither considerate nor respectful?

The system puts the first two URLs at the foot of every email it sends
out. It might help if it also added
https://devguide.python.org/

I'll suggest that to the forum moderators.

That makes it sound like we're all core developers, which would be a considerable discouragement to discussion. I would expect that the core devs actually know this already, and reminding them at every turn is rather insulting.
