This has been brought up so many times that it would be off-topic just for bone-crushing tedium if it weren't already off limits as ideological trolling. Feel free to search HN for the countless flamewars we've already had about it. It's a perfect example of the kind of unsubstantive, inflammatory discussion we don't want here.

You took the thread into a tedious, pointless flamewar and broke the rules by being uncivil as well. We ban accounts that do these things, so please read the rules at https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and follow them from now on.
