We would say "we need pages," and they would explain why we didn't. We

was a
better idea. We would say "there's too much white space," and they
would
explain that people like white space. And so on.

state that if FLOW gets introduced on all talk pages I would stop using
talk pages. I was replied that they are sorry but this is my choice.
