Shall we make straight razors illegal too while we're at it? Let's not reduce everything to the least common denominator lest we end up like (formerly) Oregon

  I don't think you'd find a single woodworker anywhere who, if they could afford it, wouldn't prefer a table saw with Sawstop. How much are your fingers worth to you?

  Illegal? No, we don't need to do that. But we can certainly point out that safety razors already exist, are much easier to use safely and correctly, and do at least as good of a job for 99.9...÷ of people. This also means that if someone chooses to use a straight razor it is immediate cause for suspicion of their reasons (e.g. it might be an aesthetic preference rather than dispassionately choosing the best tool for the job) and if they advise other people to use that tool, we can call that out as bad advice. So we don't need to make Nginx illegal, or make that default illegal, but we can certainly point out that it's a foolish default when it offers no extra power to anyone, but offers significant risk to many.
