No, there are other options. * I didn't know the poll was happening * I just want to get on with editing / reading Wikipedia (or sister project) and are sick of the constant bickering. * I am happy for the Foundation (after consultation) to decide on what features to have on the project it is entrusted in running.
at the end it is very simple. the one who produces software has a conflict of interest. so this person or organisation is not in a good position to decide when it is used.
And the editor community are not in the best position to decide what are the best features for the (overlapping but much much larger) reader community either.
