Just staff and former staff? Huh. You must be reading wikimedia-that-doesn't-include-liam-fae-former-board-members-or-almost-anyone-else-l. What's it like there?
To Risker's point; "don't beat up on people who have less information than you" is a good principle. But so is "don't call people incompetent when the alternative is that you're missing something". Speaking as both a volunteer and staff, Anthony, I have found your attitude in this conversation and others on the subject to be deeply unproductive. It would be good if you spent more time asking questions and less time dismissing people's concerns.

Ah, Brandon. Thanks for writing me off as "the folks at Wikipediocracy." I'm also the folks at en.Wikipedia and the folks on the board of WikiProject Med Foundation. And I give a shit about Wikipedia.
This push for the removal of the ED is coming from staff. And failed staff. If you want support from the wider editor community, you'll need to bring us with you. I'm making it clear to you that presently you haven't done that yet. Maybe you don't need to.

Danny, don't kid yourself! The folks at Wikipediocracy knoweverything about everything that's happened at the Foundation and about everything that will EVER happen. They've never been wrong, ever!

You know, it's possible that the people who work for the Foundation might understand the situation in a more nuanced way than you do. I know it doesn't seem likely, but dare to dream.
