If by now you don't understand that this project is a bad idea, you are going to get a reputation of being not intelligent. That's not a good reputation for a coder.

Why is it a bad idea?

Maybe people have already stated the reasons. And you (wrongly) think you have effectively refuted them. You are being, to choose a mild word, dense.

Sometimes it's best to just look at how mad you are making people, and draw your conclusions from that.

You are making something people don't want.

wohhhh, that's pretty hostile don't you think?

I've being reading through this whole debacal myself, and I haven't seen any good reasons so far.

I think tip4commit is a pretty hostile project itself. It deserves a hostile reprimand. And since the creator refuses to even opt-out (let alone opt-in) projects, I really can't feel sorry for them.
