>> If I take on my free time exposing issues, it's because I hope that maybe some reader will consider them with proper attention, then maybe agree that there is an issue worth investigating, and then many conclude that a made decision has to be reverted. That's a multi-step process. And that process starts with a proper read of the issues that have been exposed.

The fact that you fail at evaluating the relevance of an issue, as exemplified by the fact that you never answer directly to the described problems, does not make that issue moot. Instead, it may well end in the ears of people who have been more engaged in the subject: Tony Allevato as the author of SE-0185, and Chris Lattner the review manager.
Their feedback would be especially appreciated, considering that the SE-0185 acceptance rationale (https://lists.swift.org/pipermail/swift-evolution-announce/2017-August/000400.html) doesn't address the issues I'm please to repeat for the interested readers:
