I’d ask you to consider the possibility that you’re also not serving the interests of Julia as an open source project. I personally believe that every single committer to Julia wants to provide an inclusive and welcoming environment. But “open discussion” doesn’t put in N hours of work per week to develop and maintain Julia: specific people do. If the rules of open discussion create an environment that those specific people find to be unpleasant, you’ll achieve open discussion at the cost of the personal well-being of the people who keep Julia growing. I don’t think that’s a good trade-off to make.
