Fully agree with Andrea. I don't think there's a point in debating the
majority question to no end, because ultimately, it's open for
interpretation. I feel very, very confident about my interpretation - for
reasons I explained already. I didn't ignore the feedback, I disagreed
with it.

Sure,

I still stand by my original comment - that I hope and believe this RFC
will get well over 2/3 - but that it technically only requires a simple
majority.
