No. We will not go to removing bios on demand on my watch.
I would suggest as a modest proposal that we do away with "Wikipedia is an
encyclopedia". I've already suggested that we do away with the IAR

"Wikipedia is an encyclopedia" constantly gets misinterpreted to mean "we
may never allow other concerns to take precedence over being
encyclopediac". This is wrong.
