On what grounds are you suppressing debate? It is exactly and precisely
not irrelevant to Python, since it's discussing a Python-specific change
to known and understood computing terminology, and frankly the statement
"Continued considerate posts will be discarded" is outrageous.
As soon as personal or group attacks start taking place (at least, as
soon as such posts are noticed), that thread will be shut down. As I
said, the tools are primitive and more precise actions are not available.
I have been unimpressed with the moderation team for some weeks now, but
this is just not acceptable.
I'm sorry you feel that way. The goal is to have an environment where
we can all help/be helped by others, primarily with Python. Attacks on
others do not help that [1].
