Edited: Ack, sorry, didn’t check properly and put the wrong rationale here. Locked this as a poll hadn’t been entered.

Feel free to start a new thread with a proper poll, if you really find it necessary. Though I would appreciate it if you would confine the discussion to the existing [“chink in the wall” discussion here](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=642839).
