DRV is only particularly useful for retrieving deleted stuff since you can't make an AfD nomination for an article that doesn't exist.
Question: Why not? If DRV is so poisonous, why not make it so that someone unhappy with a deleted article just has to convince one of the ~800 admins to give the matter the benefit of the doubt and undelete, then list on AFD again.
Because then the admin who did that would receive a sh*tst*rm of complaint about "going against process", be listed for "de-adminning", have screeds of hate written about them on [[WP:AN/I]]...and might even be blocked for [[WP:POINT]] and multitudinous other "sins"...whilst the offending article was torn down and the earth under it salted and radiated to prevent anything like it ever sullying the face of the Wikipedia again.
Need I go on?
