Are there things that have been discussed to death that we should not debate anymore?

By coincidence, Mod @What_Exit just updated the TOS and called our attention to it here:

Which TOS / combined rules includes this section:

@Excerpt of TOS Rules

Tired topics. The following subjects have been beaten to death on this board and are cIosed to further discussion. If you feel new information has come to light that warrants reopening of a tired topic, you are free to petition the staff, but be aware that you face a high bar:

• Scientific racism - any argument about why a particular group of humans is objectively better or worse than any other group.
• Holocaust denial. Seriously, folks. If you want to debate whether the Holocaust occurred, this is not the place for you.
• Men’s rights advocacy, including threads about how men are somehow disadvantaged in society, women are genetically inferior or have a predisposition toward specific gender roles, and how men are naturally entitled to be in charge.
• 9/11 truthers, including but not limited to claims that 9/11 didn’t happen or was a false flag operation by the government.
• Climate change denialism. Much about climate change is open to debate, but the basic reality of the phenomenon has been established beyond reasonable doubt.
