To a degree you have a very valid point - however wading through a
discussion over nuanced verbiage isn't of value to me (and at least a
few others). This discussion will not garner a visible opinion from
the vast majority of those who read this list, and most likely, the vast
majority of those on this list don't really care about the discussion at
all other than not wanting the Postgres *community* to self-destruct,
starve, or be torn apart by wolves.

From direct personal experience, separating "how to run a group" from
"the topic" of the group improves at least the "topic" portion and those
who actually want to participate will follow wherever the "how" moves to.

I do appreciate this community, and "everyone's" declared desire to
maintain it's quality a great deal - so I've piped up to add weight to
the request for a respite from the details... I'll deal with the
noise... by skipping it. Adrian - a contributor.. apparently by leaving
(at least temporarily).
