I've re-read 
https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/dev/2017-February/029683.html 
and 
https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/dev/2017-February/029684.html 
and I still don't see "hostility" in there.  Your message, the original 
of which wasn't archived by the list because it didn't contain any plain 
text is visible as the "replied to" text of 
https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/dev/2017-February/029683.html .

Silly question - if you'd like to see different functionality in 
Nominatim why don't you just fork it?

I'm not involved with Nominatim at all (other than as an occasional 
user) but I can think of plenty of occasions in the past where I've hit 
similar problems to you and done exactly that, such as the "switch2osm" 
and "zoom" branches of https://github.com/SomeoneElseOSM/mod_tile .  Why 
was that not an option for you here?

(crossposting to "talk" removed again)

Best Regards,

Andy
