So you admit you don't really understand wikipedians?
However refactoring does solve a real problem.
With the shear number of sigs out there no it does not.
Of course they'll be
pissed off; if they didn't think that their signatures were more
important than the discussion, they wouldn't have unnecessarily
cluttered the discussion page.
More they don't think they are a problem. If you show that you respect
them enough to talk to them about changeing thier sigs they are less
likely to be anoyed.
While it doesn't solve their problem,
it does solve *wikipedia's* problem. Wikipedians should take
reasonable steps to avoid treading on toes, but should not go out of
their way to bow to unreasonable demands.
Asking that you respect people enough to talk to them first is not a
completely unreasonable demand.
