That may be, but that's a different discussion. "Silly" and "impossible" are not synonyms.

Once you concede that you are wrong about EOD being impossible we can go on to discuss whether or not it is silly. And note that all I have to do to show that it isn't silly is to present one realistic scenario where it might be useful.

Manifestly not.

I am not interested in talking to you anymore. When you reply to my comments it gives me a notification, and I am unable to block you here. Please go away.

If I have to write tooling to make it stop, I will.

Then why do you keep doing it?

  I've installed the block user extension and written an email filtering rule for you. You may now have the last word, but I will never see it.
  You prompted this by continuing the discussion and notifying me in other threads past when this discussion was flagged and I had stopped responding to you... and then even beyond when I had asked you to stop. In seven years of prior discussion on HN, this has never been necessary.
