If you think that then you're not understanding the proposal.
It isn't a two-tier of *what you can read*, you cannot read these even in  
snippet form outside the project.
That's quite a different thing from the FA system which is completely an  
internal event that no one outside really cares about.
So these pages would not be included in dumps, they wouldn't be indexed,  
links to them would be in a different color, if even allowed at all.
An alternative would be to create a brand-new project for wikipoop and put  
them all there.

This already exists with GA/FA ratings. Creating a new  public/internal
division just adds a new front for  controversy.
