Sources of this type, even if owned by a large media company, need to
be taken with an extra grain of salt.
And then there is this idea that Jimbo has relinquished actual
authority by giving up some functional capacities, when he plainly
said in about as many words this was a symbolic gesture to diffuse and
refocus criticism. The naive reader might think it means "shakedown",
we who've been around for a while know that functional flags can be
turned off an on, and Jimbo doesn't edit Wikipedia anyway.
