Getting a little off-topic here, but I still
don't see being reckless as
necessarily a bad thing. You build and learn from these sort of
experiences. You're reckless once, you're reverted, you talk about it, you
learn. That's to be encouraged.

BRD is different from recklessness. Quoting:
"The BOLD, revert, discuss
cycle (BRD) is an optional method of reaching consensus. It can sometimes
be useful for identifying objections, keeping discussion moving forward and
helping to break deadlocks. Care and diplomacy should be exercised. Some
editors will see any reversion as a challenge, so be considerate and
patient."
Dictionary def of "reckless" from Wiktionary: "1. Careless or heedless;
headstrong or rash. 2.
Indifferent to danger or the consequence."
