Because it's not just about scripts and bots. The Cadastre situation, which started all of this off, is often people loading .osm files into JOSM, running a quick validator check over it, and uploading. In terms of impact on the map and on the community, there is no significant difference between this and the same operation using upload.py. (On a matter of language: "if you want to... then why don't you just say so?" comes across as really quite hostile in English. I won't assume that it's meant as such, as I recognise that English isn't everyone's first language on this list. However, this is intended as a constructive suggestion to solve an impasse which we've reached and a rather less hostile tone would be nice. It doesn't actually make any difference to me personally - I only _use_ OSM data for the UK, where we don't have imports, and I'm not on DWG so I don't have to deal with the angry mails. I'm simply trying to help and getting hostile doesn't really encourage that.)
