It doesn't. Not with what's written in the DIP. If you don't care 
to elaborate I guess that's the end of that discussion.

So talking about something that's part of the DIP is distracting 
from the DIP? Why are you trying to control the narrative that 
takes place in a DIP? You shouldn't be splitting up DIPs into 
non-nonsensical pieces just so you can tell people to not discuss 
certain aspects that relate to the current DIP because they are 
also part of another DIP.

I'd say as long as it mentions making nothrow the default in the 
DIP, this is fair to discuss here. It is part of this DIP after 
all.
