There seems an epidemic around here of this phenomenon where, when discussing an article or other set of information, additional context, even when already brought up or requested, is regarded as not germane to the discussion.
I did read the article, as well as most of the other comments in this thread, some of which were referring to the "creep" effect of undesirable tools into other places once they get into some of the main places. That's what I am referring to. If you don't want to participate in that branch of the discussion, that's an option, as is even a drive-by down vote.
Scolding me for not rigidly sticking within the scope of the topic that started the conversation, even after the topic has drifted or broadened, seems not only counterproductive, but a waste of your time.
