Meh, I'm fine with people talking in any venue they wish. Speaking only
for myself, I don't need to read everything everyone has written; if it's
something that needs to be brought to broader attention, chances are
someone will facilitate it. But I think even those who are entirely happy
to be on Facebook would agree there's a bit of an irony on talking about
the respect for Wikimedia community values on a site that explicitly
doesn't share them.
That, and it's a bit unfair to tease people.

At the end of the day, people will prefer tools that work well over tools
that align philosophically. One can sabotage the development of tools that
would both work well and uphold Wikimedia's values, but cannot prevent
important discussions from moving to other venues (which will necessarily
be a worse match for those values). There is a lesson there, although I'm
afraid it will take some more time before we learn it.
