I found this a terribly ridiculous change and myself up the wall.
How useful is it cleaning up the room until it looks super clean
if under the carpet you have dirt so much that live on earth
vanishes?  Braindead, feeble and eggless to an extent that
causes goose bumps!  This can not be anything else than one more
symptom of the increasing trivialism in media and society
discourse we all pay for more and more.  In the 70s that
discourse was so that people actually understood (to the best of
my knowledge) to place those quotes in the actual context of
what they lead to.  Etc.  That committer is an idiot, and i was
more than astonished to see that he even is part of the core team
of FreeBSD!  Thank you.
