I didn't think there was. I thought they were just being a bit lazy or overly-conservative and it made me exasperated. But I stumbled across some odd...

I'm interested in these protocol politics to some extent. I've been wondering to what extent the Nostr community is willing to have, or is sophisticated enough to be capable of having, serious conversations about the protocol. There's a lot of silence when one raises questions or makes suggestions that one would expect to draw interest and generate discussion. That sort of silence combined with irrationality is usually not accidental and one does better to pay attention to it. Discussions that aren't being done in good faith are a time drain, and correctly recognizing them as such should affect one's decision how much energy to invest in talking to this community rather than another one.
