Mathew, give us a break.
If you really feel strongly on the issue then do what Henry and Geoff did.

(1) Think about the problem. Think about it HARD
(2) Formulate a solution for it.
(3) NOW IMPLEMENT IT. Goto (1) till satisfied and correct.
(4) Get support for it.
(5) Get it adopted.

Unless you've completed steps (1)-(3), your comments hold little effective
weight.

When you are ready for steps (4) and (5) then you should use every possible
means of pursuasion you can muster.

Until then, give it a rest.
