I support bringing these types of discussions to github (not 
Reddit/Twitter) instead where people can respond to a comment 
directly, or through thumbs up or down and at least edit their 
comments rather than piling on emails sequentially. Or a 
different type of discussion platform entirely.

(That said I am with Adam Ruppe's take on this matter)
