I think a blanket "nope" stance is too harsh, and leaves no room for nuance. It also assumes that the mods are not intelligent people.



The nice thing about bureaucracy is that it doesn't leave any room for debate. Not everything needs to be debated. If you're on HN, you're here to waste time. The click is free.


To be clear, "err on the side of" is still a long way from "blanket", and I did say it was a trade-off. Sorry if my choice of idiom was confusing.
