Please don't misinterpret what I wrote. I wrote, on python-list/c.l.py
that merely "collecting votes" was not a useful task - collecting useful
arguments _is_. Many of the posts here (and even more so on c.l.py) are
simply stating and restating the same arguments, or else people posting
"I hate form blah".

In the useful case, I'd point to the discussion on "|" vs "@". People
are working through the issues.

The goal here is to attempt to reach a concensus.
