I made accusations and explained them. You accused me of making
personal attacks, but won't back it up when challenged, saying that
it'd be a waste of time. If it's not important, why make the
accusation in the first place?

I have thought about making arguments and explanations, but erased
them because it could distract from this point. I'm far less concerned
about the proposal (in either direction) than about the treatment of a
new user and a controversial proposal. The harm of that is here and
now.
