Some of us are not just “fine with it” - we actively like it this way. Some of us are the reason the rules are as they are now. We had [a whole thread](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/new-rules-2020-discussion-thread/845729) to hash them out at the time. You posted in it. And said zip about the hijack part.

This is a “you (pl)” problem, not a “we” problem. It very much is not the “mods vs. everyone else” issue you’re trying to spin it as.
