This is how stupid arguments occur on this mailing list. Chris' ammendment never said "bonus discs are never albums", see for yourself: http://wiki.musicbrainz.org/BonusDisc?action=diff&rev2=6&rev1=5 "Also note that the ReleaseAttribute for a Bonus Disc will normally not be 'album', unlike the primary release." I personally have seen dozens of bonus disc's and there is only 1 that I would consider even close to being an album: http://musicbrainz.org/release/e299757e-d320-471c-88f6-b8b946a13e04.html All tracks are previously unreleased. That said, I don't believe that it is impossible for a bonus disc to be an album and I haven't heard anyone else here say that. I don't know why you dislike Chris and I couldn't care less, the point is that your personal like/dislike of people should have no bearing on how you judge their suggestions/proposals.
