If it's controversial why should it be relegated to back pages?
I didn't suggest it should be.
I will note that so far I have two replies, both nominally "arguing against" my supposed "position" here. Both strike me as a wild misinterpretation of what I have said.
And that's exactly why tossing out questions or comments on a front page post on a large forum can be problematic.
Which isn't to say one should never do such. But it's frequently not exactly gratifying.
