Maybe if you had asked for comments _before_ implementing a
decision, rather than after, you might've gotten better results.
As it stands, some people have objections to your idea, and your
only response is "you should've raised those before I asked for
final comments."

You asked for comments, you didn't specify they all had to be
supportive.
