The mods have been allowing the discussion to proceed with minimal intervention, because as we have stated several times there are important issues to be fleshed out here, and it has generally been fairly constructive. That includes allowing criticisms, and only responding to the more heated and personal escalations that do not add to the argument.
A while back, I made the point that those criticisms, the reasons why people feel the way they do about detsys posts, why the good will has seemingly evaporated, had been well covered by that point.
There was a long and excellent list of summary points and action items. That seems to have been largely ignored since.
It seems like the discussion may well have run out of useful places to go. Prove me wrong?
