While I do agree that “no real consensus was reached” (for a strong definition of consensus). I think you and me got different impressions from the discussion in [this thread](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/why-are-missing-values-not-ignored-by-default/106756/57). I think the likes tell a story of the silent majority agreeing with the current behaviour.
