I think I already made it clear in another thread why I'm not going to interact with your comments in particular. There's no need to try and post variations of the same comment throughout the tree.

At the same time, I'm perfectly happy to respond to questions and concerns of other people like the one above who can express their thoughts without resorting to personal attacks.

What a wonderful word, "respond". Not answer. Respond. That's exactly what you're doing: responding

HN: This is not "finalised"

Respond: oh yes, it is finalised. Because browsers [sic! plural] conform to the living standard

HN: It's not implemented or supported by browsers (plural).

Respond: Oh, it doesn't matter, all that matters is that Chrome implemented it

(Aside: for something to be considered standard and finalised there should be at least two independent implementations. See history of why WebSQL on top of Sqlite never happened)

HN: Others view this standard as harmful

Respond: why are you attacking me personally

> who can express their thoughts without resorting to personal attacks.

To me you are just another in a long list of Chrome's talking heads who all behave absolutely identically (and their behaviour is very well documented across various internet platforms): ignore, deflect, gaslight. What you see is simply a reaction to this. To your credit you haven't stooped down to gaslighting.

Want to see a different approach? Change your (as in Chrome team's) behaviour. That is, however, unlikely: Chrome stands nothing to lose by ignoring any and all concerns about its behaviour.
