No, he was agreeing. We have a lot of projects on our map to shore up some of these types of issues, but our admins are in high demand, so some of the lower-priority tasks slip on occasion. Since we rarely have issues with the blog (today was an exception) it tends to be a "we know what we'd like to change, but we'll do it when we have time" type of silo on our website.

*Edit -> to your above edit -> I think if you expand the comment by hitting the "time submitted" link you can leave a reply, thus subverting HN :P
