We solicited for core dev involvement in that thread, but AFAIK, there
was only limited participation. It felt like we were just talking about
castles in the air, because the people who would actually be
implementing the process didn't say very much at all. So I wasn't at all
surprised at the misunderstandings in this thread.

Still, I think we're finally converging on the same page here, so that's
a good thing.
