I hope that as few users as possible will choose this way to degrade their experience and deprive the community of their input. Instead of endlessly arguing the point about this, I'd rather my team and I spending our time working to make our sites better.
I don't understand. Are you purposely trying to instigate this matter? All of a sudden just because somebody prefers editing source code they're "depriving the community". Or do you seriously believe that there is literally nothing better than VE and that VE is the choice for everybody?
Once VisualEditor is out of 'beta', this preference will be removed.
What you meant to say is that when VE comes out of "beta", you'll post to this mailing list again so we can discuss whether the user preference is still appropriate. And if it's decided that it's no longer needed, then it will be removed.
