Politely ???



He closed and continued with

Can see how it is extremely polite !  Full of accusations about user's ill will.

Things do not become pleasant because one adds please at the end.



>You'd prefer we left bugs that are not bugs open?



No, but people need time to respond and get some clarifications.  We all understand

that a bug report gets closed.  Have worked in many places where bug reports

just need some clarification.



Where can one report on fixes (things one could technically argue are not fundamentally

bugs) or to discuss improvements ?



You contributed to the conversation

This has nothing to do with the bug report, but I get the lynching, and you don't.

You reported a bug that was not a bug. Lars closed it, rapidly. And
politely, unlike you.

You'd prefer we left bugs that are not bugs open?

(hmm, flyspell mode binds "C-." and "C-,", which donʼt work on
tty. Perhaps we should invent alternate bindings, but thatʼs a
separate bugreport)
