I found this email amusing. You phrase it like the community is supposed
to be worried by an objection from you or an "extreme reaction"; I
certainly am not. You have been in the community long enough to not use
such phrasing. This is not the first time I have complained about this.
I have no idea why an objection from you should mean more than an
objection from anyone else in the community, and I have no idea what an
"extreme reaction" means, or why anyone should care. Do you think the
community is negotiting with you?

I think the concensus is to change this setting to a boolean. If you
don't want to do it, I am sure we can find someone who will.
