Agreed. Developers - and by extension communities of them - tend to come up with technical solutions to problems, regardless of whether the problem is technical in nature, which invariably either don’t work at all, or make the situation actively worse when the technical solution is weaponised by those at fault in the first place. I’m not sure how we address this, which is a pity because even an uncertain response would be better than the “confident technical solution” we often get thrown around.
