- dang 10y agoUsers flagged it. We sometimes turn off user flags if there's a clear mandate for doing so, but meta discussions breed like rabbits so that's probably not a good idea. Also, the community verdict on this question is super clear and isn't likely to change, so for better or worse people need to familiarize themselves with it. Mostly the arguments that get raised indicate a lack of familiarity with HN. Making such arguments more prominent would mostly irritate the community; the experienced users who do want to say their piece about it have a way of finding these threads, as here.
