I do not believe even discussing patches is enough in this case, given
the time, effort and proven effect the current layout had.

I don't disagree that it can be improved further - but I strongly feel
that any major changes to structure need to be *very* carefully
considered, and proven (A/B testing perhaps).

That is an aside to this patch though, which merely updates an old
description that's been in place for years. With the exception of the
correction I've asked Marc to make, do you believe there is any
legitimate reason why the current pages should not be updated as
requested (without applying any new rules that we may or may not agree
on at some point in the future)?
