I definitely see your point, but at the same time, isn’t public debate in text the best tool we have here for an open discussion?
Regardless, I can understand, and respect, that you don’t want to spend time on public discussions about moderation. As “some mod somewhere” once said: If you don’t like how it’s being done, become a mod yourself. I can respect that.
