I think that enough has been said on this subject.
Clearly there are
people who believe this image doesn't belong in the Commons, or
doesn't belong as a Featured Picture, or doesn't belong on the Main
Page. And there are people who believe the opposite.
Since the damage (if any) has already been done, let's just agree to
pay more attention to the FP nomination process, or to propose a
different policy for Main Page placement. If there is consensus
on-wiki, then we've solved the problem.
We almost always successfully solve contentious issues on-wiki through
established mechanisms, and I don't see thismas being any different.

Yes, the way to go. Please point us to any on-wiki discussions as they
occur.
