There are some topics that are just not usefully discussed on HN, even ones that many people are interested in. Part of it is the nature of internet forums in general, and some I think are due to HN in particular. This isn't meant as a judgement of either: it's not dissimilar to how you may want to talk about some things with one group of people and some things with others if you want a productive outcome. I suspect it was flagged at least in part due to expectations of the ensuing discussion.
