<p dir="auto">Exactly.  That user has declared multiple interrelated microissues with strict "off topic" rules for each which is illogical and impractical.  A "non-map-dimming dark mode issues"  topic is reasonable but splitting up "how to dim maps when they are dimmed" and "UI for preferences/dimming control" and "whether or not to dim by default"  etc. etc. into mini-issues while forbidding mention of any of the other considerations prevents normal and natural discussion of the best holistic solution.  Which obviously is to create an easy and obvious user preference/dimming control of some sort instead of ivory tower deciding users should use what programmers think is best for them even if they hate it. Which is where we have ended up with the current lousy situation forced upon us.</p>
