Amir,
“some people are now thinking of undeploying the {{short description}} feature”
Who? Where is this being discussed? I am not sure what you mean by “undeploying
the feature”
Agree that it was a badly handled problem and massive time-sink, but would prefer
that the baby is not thrown out with the bathwater.
Cheers,
Peter

and a lot of different and contradicting opinions are thrown around there.
Clearly, if there is a definite demand for scraps of human-readable text attached to
things, some people will spend time arguing that the consumer is always wrong in these
situations. Just as, if you point out that it provides another way to search, they will
argue that people don't, can't or shouldn't search in such ways.
I feel there are fallacies lurking here, or anti-patterns, and would be happy to have
names for them.
