Re: [whatwg/dom] Remove mentions of XSLT from the DOM spec (PR #1400)

> Seems extremely chilish for adults that work for a company as large as Google to keep locking threads where there are comments criticizing this push to drop XSLT, such as this [issue](https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/11523) and this [pull request](https://github.com/whatwg/html/pull/11563).

So two things. One is that I haven't locked a single thread. Two is that others have (rightly) locked several threads because people kept making ad hominem attacks (like calling people "extremely childish") rather than focusing on the technical discussion. I've never seen a thread on WHATWG locked for disagreements - there are many examples of quite heated disagreements that are still open for comment. However, in those examples, the participants were able to talk about the merits of the technology being discussed, without disparaging the people making the comments.
