Outside of pointing out that plus codes suck big time from a usability pov I don't believe I've really made any comment. matter of fact I pointed out that I have added support in the mobile app I maintain. From my POV the proponents of supporting plus codes on osm.org just haven't made a very good case up to now.

- What is the actual use case for providing "support" (I hope everybody realises that you don't "search" for the codes) outside of product marketing? A lot of things have been mentioned but none of them seem to have anything to do with the website.
- How do the proponents propose to handle the potential inconsistencies between short form plus codes resolved with google geocoding and those resolved with OSM based geocoding?
