Julian, what you're saying here makes me sad.  I read this as you saying
that since the design team made one decision, you're not going to accept
any changes even if to other people, with new experience, another decision
makes more sense.  Because this point is not speaking to any arguments
about the usefulness and consistency of <br> at ail, it is saying that
since your decision was such then, it has to be such now.

In that case, what is the meaning with having these discussions at all?

Are you open only to make changes that you felt were necessary already
before the implementation and user experience came in?


Disappointed,

	Henrik
