Deadlines are a commonly accepted tool to organize work. Like every
tool, deadlines do not help to solve all problems on earth and they
are of course useless if nobody uses them as a tool. And like every
tool, deadlines have to be used wisely.

I really do not see why we waste so much bandwidth on things that I
personally do not view as the big problems that need to be solved.
