I don't normally reply to messages of this kind.
But since there are probably some new people around here who are not
used to these antics:

Nope, you don't get to perpetuate that myth here.

(And, no, I'm also not interested in long messages redefining "open"
long enough that this statement turns into a form of true.)

And it also doesn't help if you frame the discussion in a destructive way.
Legitimate questions have been asked, facts have been stated, and
opinions (some more, some less well-founded) have been made known.
Enabling that kind of discussion is an important part of openness.
