I'm not sure the current operation of VFD could fairly have been predicted early enough to strangle it at birth. We need a deletion mechanism, but not this one.
It seemed to work well enough for the 8-10 months I was actively involved in voting/discussing/closing entries there. There were still complaints, but mostly from "inclusionists" who disliked it simply because it was a venue for deleting articles.
Is it significantly worse now, or just scales badly, or have the inclusionists simply gotten louder voices? I must confess I haven't messed with it in 6 months or so just because I lost interest in most meta-pages and went back to writing articles. =]
