No the pattern is you guys propose something. You are pointed out 
that this thing won't work as well as expected and you'll run 
into problem X, Y and Z down the road.

You are then presented will alternatives that you ignore and 
chose to proceed anyway. When later on, you run into problem X, Y 
and Z, as predicted, you act like this is new to you, and ask for 
people to redo a bunch of work that you can ignore again.

You can point me as the lazy bum here, but there is a reasons why 
the lifetime ML died. You ignored all proposal that weren't your 
own and people stopped participating. I'm just the only one 
persistent enough to continue pointing it out.
