You said that the Postgres developers are idiots because they won't do hints. Then you suggested that it might be due to influence from a commercial fork.

In that case idiotic is probably not the right word. Did you make the suggestion in any of their forums?

I suspect that continuing that discussion would be going round in circles.

An attempt to draw a parallel - obviously wasted.

The verb has a number of dictionary definitions, you are taking an unduly narrow view.

Yes it is.

That something can be misused does not make it inherently bad.

I was aware of "The Doors of Perception" (the book) and its subject a very long time ago, possibly before you were born, but I wouldn't give it sole or even major blame for even the drug aspect of the 60s counter-culture, and I don't think there is any sort of provably causal chain from them to the current drug abuse situation. That period also had other consequences, many of them good, or at least partially so.

Too much OT, I suspect.
