Thanks for sharing the threads. I always think that downvoting is for discouraging bad arguments from DH0 to DH3 [1] (for discussion quality as you mentioned). Now I realize that even convincing arguments at DH6 can be downvoted as long as

The one thing that really annoys me is that they don't have a keyboard shortcut for adding a new row. Now I always have to 1) Shift space to select the current row 2) Press the "right-click" button the keyboard 3) Press the d
