Can this now be considered off-topic and not germane to the art and

130% agreed, and in fact I said in my reply this morning:
"Please note that this thread should NOT become an argument about
"proper" reply styles. It's as fruitless as tabs vs. spaces, Mac vs.
Windows, etc., etc., etc, and we've always striven to avoid such "Holy
Wars" on this list because they're inevitably more noise than signal."
And then it went and became that. Perhaps I erred in not explicitly
stating THIS IS OFF TOPIC, so there, I've done it. Whatever the case,
it stops now, either by list members respecting the community or by
server-enforced fiat. I would very much prefer the former.
The policies regarding reply styles and quote-trimming are what they
are, I will try to be better about reminding people offline to trim
wasteful overage, and Holy Wars are still always off-topic. If
necessary, I will go add this to the official list of Holy Wars on the
wiki, but I hope it won't be necessary.
