Yes, exactly, it requires arguments being made in good faith, and 
considering the needs and perspectives of others.

...You would do well to practice what you preach.

I might add that even when your needs and perspectives are duly 
considered, it does not follow that the outcome will be something you 
are necessarily satisfied with.  Engineering is all about balancing 
tradeoffs, after all.

Meanwhile, "everything before" continues to exist and works as well as 
the day it was released.  Nobody here is forcing you to use anything 
more recent; you're free to adapt that older source code to your needs, 
or pay someone else to do it for you.
