What requires revisiting is whether it should. I don't need any further convincing that it does. I have never been persuaded by the argument, "because we've always done it that way," and

Yes it needs to be a separate topic. But I assure you that it won’t be rehashed again to any effect. It was one of those mega-battles. (Perhaps you were involved in it? I don’t remember.) Thread
