I haven't responded to this one comment I received on cohost. Not because I can't, but because I don't know how to phrase what is effectively "the reason you don't care about these other proposals and think they're worthless is because you are highly specialized and lack perspective, which is why someone like Linus actually favors the same proposals you're shitting on and asking 'Who does this serve?'".
I don't want to appeal to authority or anything, but doing the full argument for "why are people writing proposals about things I don't care about but not focusing on all the things I personally/professionally have great stake in?" is just kind've exhausting at this point.
