Sounds like just more strategic deletionist excusism. There is no
excuse for anyone giving to destruction a higher value than they do to
creation.
So now that things are wrapping up, don't forget to hand out some
merit badges to the 'winners.' Ostensibly, there is a deletionist who
stands out from the pack, for whom a specially branded Trout Award
will do just fine.
