Just objecting to the PROD is too easy an excuse to remove it. It's not hard at all to give a sentence about why you think an article is important.
My story about PROD: User:Arthur Rubin stuck one on [[Hillel Furstenberg]] shortly after I made it. With some nonsense about 'no assertion of notability' and then some other nonsense about not meeting [[WP:PROF]]. As far as I can see, Furstenberg meets each of the six criteria in section 1 of WP:PROF. So my reason for objecting to a PROD on an article about someone who is a member of both the US and Israeli Academies of Sciences is that the thing was ludicrous. Please bear in mind the number of people with time on their hands.

And you justified yourself in the edit summary when you removed it; that's good enough. I hope that's somewhat in-line with what James Hare is suggesting.
