>I mean, isn’t this exactly the behaviour we want to encourage? Kind of. If I announce I'm going to start beating my wife and then say "After feedback, I've decided not to do this" then I don't expect to be voted man of the year. And yes, this is an extreme example but for the sort of people who get angry on Twitter the issue they're getting mad at is an extreme one (whatever it is). I think reversing a bad decision is admirable when it wasn't already obvious at the time of making it that it was bad. If new information comes to light that they couldn't have reasonably known originally then of course, that's fine. But mostly the new information seems to be "We knew this would piss some people off but we thought we could get away with it."
