As always, I see a lot of outright misinformation, a lot of information taken out of context, and mostly - as is usual on HN - "Why they do X, if Y is better?"

As always, I see a lot of outright misinformation, a lot of information taken out of context, and mostly - as is usual on HN - "Why they do X, if Y is better?" "Well, read the legislation, they actually do Z and they had reasons." I wonder how would George of Poděbrady (who thought of something like EU in 15th century: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_of_Pod%C4%9Bbrady#Message_of_peace https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_of_Pod%C4%9Bbrady#Messa...). I don't think he would be worried about bureaucracy, I'm sure he would be in awe we can actually solve things this way.
