Splendid. Would you like to share with us the non-arbitrary, considered decisions not to support a tiny handful of irregular tags which existed? I mean, if you were supporting the BCP, they’d’ve just been there, so an explicit suggestion “Hey, let’s not support irregular tags” must’ve been mooted by somebody. By whom? Who seconded it? Was there a vote? I’m sure we’re all eager to learn about this.

Needless snarkiness doesn’t make this work more pleasant.
