That is one of the lousiest reasonings and you know it too 
Not because of an example of as ancient tool as landlines or checks (I can’t even write it, piece of paper that acts as cash money) but because Discourse is just piece of code. We are talking here about tools to limit actions. Just like we can limit when and where is suitable to Discourse popup to screen or start beeping on my wrist.
I understand totally why there is need to limit informatic flow. But it should be happend via settings and automation using a little bit more civil way than nagging when users are using offered tools that are widely in use.
No. I have zero intress discuss about policy of Meta. I was used this forum as an example why there is need and demand for such option.
Your solution is pay to get option to limit in-build action. I would like to see softwear itself offering an option to adjust its own behaviour. Just as we can do with everything else.
If it is impossible mission because of technical structure of Discourse, including amount of workload and then human nagging is cheaper option, then I’m happy — but I would like to hear it. Or… if no one else thinks we should have, at age of AI, something more reliable tools than just human moderation and longer rulebook, then this feature request never fullfils rule of three or even needs of corporate clients and that’s fine too.
