I've stated my opinion, and despite implications to the contrary, that's all I set out to do.

Due to timezone differences, I was asleep when the last call to close the thread was posted. While I have previously attempted to get the discussion back on track, in situations where the discussion has once again been derailed such as this, I would not have been opposed to a call by Assembly members to lock the thread. 

In this instance, the locking of the thread by Tsu was justified, and I would have done the same.
