Worth pointing out then that "BADSITES" in the wide pejorative sense seems to stand for:

"An absence or vacuum of due LfD process that seemed to be open to executive action, persuading some people that it was a good policy idea at the time, and subject to instruction creep and stretch after that, which is why some others are making the rafters ring about it, even though it is a dead parrot."
