Can we please put this to rest?

Sorry, I thought this was the forum for members to discuss these sorts of ideas. In fact, you moved this topic to this specific forum. Are there certain topics that we are banned (or discouraged) from discussing ? I must admit that I am confused by this. But, let's ...

the thing to avoid is editing the title...
