      And I would argue that explaining why people dont like the usage of “this” is not more useful than people writing “this” because of the Streisand effect we’ve witnessed and that you and I have now created is even more detrimental to a thread because it creates a distraction from the original topic. We now have a subtopic competing for brain cycles that clearly adds no value and is likely making us all stupider.

      I award us no points, and may God have mercy on our souls.

        But wouldnt that reply to the “this” comment and this subtopic discourage people from writing “this”, making a subtopic like this rarer, but also reducing the total number of new useless comments?
