As you're new to the community, you've missed out on a lot of history behind those comments.

It's consistently been shown that anything that elicits a large and vehement response initially will inevitably receive very little useful input once the *****'n'moan phase has been passed and the constructive improvement phase has been reached.

People never provide input when input is requested, and then complain once a discussion is had and consensus is reached, but never bother to provide useful input once the issue is reopened. It wears thin very shortly.
