Please point out where I asked you to beg for forgiveness? [citation needed] as you would say.

I didn't even raise that issue, you did. I simply pointed out that it's not surprising that people care. What I'm trying to say is that you should not put down people who care, even if you can't meet their needs. There's a reason why I pointed to Matthew's comment saying that supporting Emacs key bindings may not be possible or worthwhile; he did it without putting down the people who use those bindings. You ignored all that and chose to attack me instead.

Every one of those millions of users you somehow aspire to will have a nit-pick issue somewhere. There's no way you will ever be able to satisfy them all. But you will certainly alienate those users if you tell them that they are out of line to even raise the issue.

Oh well, I'm done.
