Given the reaction, I think you’re probably right. Certainly, it would be nice to be able to point to a more open discussion that happened before hand. At the same time, if the decision was made, giving the illusion that the community had veto power might actually have been duplicitous. On the other hand, seems like there might be legit design decisions that could have benefited from early community feedback (eg keeping IP addresses separate)."
