I love this about the internet in general. It could have been possible for the person that implemented the change to be born after the request was even made. All the while the discussion thread was maintained alive, while that person would be going to school and learn to code. Similarly you can post a very specific question on a forum and it's possible the person that will answer it casually many years later as if they were just continuing the discussion wasn't even born when you posted the question. These extremely asynchronous interactions between strangers are something unique. I wonder what's the current record for longest lived discussion thread like this, or the question-answer pair with the longest interval. A bit like the open-ended questions in academia that are answered decades later.
