Well put. I’d add on to your metaphor: slamming the door on someone is quite different than just not holding it open anymore. The second is totally acceptable; the first is impolite.

This case is clearly akin to not holding the door open anymore.

The code’s all there and still available, right? Anyone who wants to can reach out and “hold the door open” for themselves, can’t they?
