No. We really don't. Because serious thought on Wikipedia has always  
amounted to navel-gazing, and perhaps some fiddling while Rome  
smolders. We need for the problem to become a real one. Then we can  
figure out what it is, and actually create a solution. A hypothetical  
solution to a theorized result of an experiment we're only discussing  
conducting is sufficiently removed from any  notion of reality as to  
be a vapid philosophical exercise.

Turn off AfD. See what happens. if it's a disaster, we turn it back  
on and say "Well, shit, that was interesting." If it's not a  
disaster... we say "Well, neat, that was interesting." Really,  
there's only about three letters difference in the reactions.
