If you made this careful analysis, you'd hear "CRISSAKE WE NEED THIS DONT TOUCH IT" for almost everything (and it likely would be right for a significant portion but not everything).

That's why the current approach seems to be to axe everything, listen to how much screaming there is, then reinstate only the projects where the screaming is really loud.

Please read Isaacson biography of Musk.

The "Musk algorithm" is described in detail, and can be summed up as a "reverse Chesterton's fence"

"If you are not forced to reinstitute 10% of the rules you slashed, you have not slashed enough".

What happens while the 10% are slashed is left as an exercise to the voter.

Hopefully, the cve db will be deemed part of the 10%.

You forget that their stated policy (and I don't doubt their commitment) is that whoever complains the loudest were probably scamming. That "honest people don't complain"
