Well, that's your opinion. I disagree, and in a discussion about a project, other readers should be allowed to form their own opinions of my legitimate input. There's a strong correlation between my comment and the resolution of this pull request; indeed, there's a good argument for a causal relationship, so it seems suspicious to suggest that my comment didn't add anything to the discussion. Please reinstate my comment, because what people read is *this* discussion (not some separate archive), and I want my name (*mfwitten*) associated with my comment, not with @w3c's comment that my input has been deleted, which makes it appear as though my input is somehow uncouth. I mean, before deletion, there was just my one comment, which led to the swift resolution of this pull request. Now, there is a discussion about @w3c's deletion of my comment; it seems to me that it is the deletion of my comment that has detracted from the discussion and that is leading rapidly to dampened progress or cooperation. If a person feels compelled to provide input, then that's not something that you should ignore, let alone explicitly silence; such input represents a perspective that others might share. At best, such silencing tends to dissuade future contributions, some of which you might actually consider to be valuable. Have a little leeway, you know, for the sake of [noise margins](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Static_discipline). -- GitHub Notification of comment by mfwitten Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/pull/3618#issuecomment-468710091 using your GitHub account
