This whole thread was kicked off by a greenbean HN commenter's capricious tastes. There is nothing more ideological than taste, because it can motivate any injustice.

I do find it ridiculous that... their bodies are allowed to litter the landscape forever.

Yes, others' opinions can result in actions you don't like. I don't see how that is pertinent here.

Uhhh, I'm not complaining about dead bodies in some out-of-the-way spot that I'll never see, and suggesting that something "should be required". That was the other person. I'm fine with the bodies remaining in place. I like all the actions we're seeing in this context.

No one suggested otherwise.
