    I can appreciate you don’t like this, but much like someone thats warlike about mistaken grammar, I’m a bit at a loss for how the original action is that problematic compared to the intolerant response. Its minor spam that gets downranked my most options for reading, presuming you’re not desperate on reading every single comment but that’s a bit inconsistent with the “taking away my time” slight you appear to be offended by

      There’s a certain cost-benefit imbalance in these habits: sure, it’s not a great cost to leave some litter around. People can just step over it. But while one person marginally benefits from it, hundreds more pay the (also tiny, admittedly) cost of the unpleasantness. When you multiply it like that, the negligible becomes gligible.
