We can't have two iPhone 7 reviews on the front page. The discussion about this particular review is welcome to continue here, or on the article currently on the front page: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12486946.
Why can't there be two reviews on the front page? They are (or should be) genuinely unique pieces of content that could be more valuable together than apart ... having two perspectives on such a widely used piece of gear might be 10x as useful as one, no?
Also, now the daring fireball one is down to the second page, so the dupe flag seems possibly to have unilaterally made it so there are no reviews on the front.
