I thought about that but beyond the language
issue, the RfC has also been
open for awhile and had significant participation. Since the trend is to
reject the policy as written anyway, that makes it unenforceable until a
new RfC is held that demonstrates consensus for a revised policy. Makes a
"no global bans" option somewhat moot, although it would have been
cleaner
to include it from the beginning.
I'm not sure I'd call it a trend just yet, since only 20 people have
commented and only recently did "No, not yet" pass the Yes option. ;-)
But enough semantics. Thanks for the suggestions Nathan, I think you're
right.

Since I love semantics as much as any Wikimedian, just have to point out
that even a 50/50 split is a trend against consensus ;)
