Dont wanna, won’t, defend this *thing* here but… You probably/likely know that parsing annotations is basically parsing attributes, so hinting that we solved ignorability by having annotations is not I think, a real rebuttal

That : the usecase is flimsy
That : there were alternatives offered
That : there is no implementations experience

All of those are somewhat rebuttal-shaped but please, not the ignorability meme again….

Let’s focus on how unmotivated it is ?
