Got it. Just curious, is this decision because you disagree, or because of the work/reward ratio, or something else? Ie, if I submitted a pull request to auto-reset bump date upon deletion of a post, would it be rejected?

Also, I did a search and couldn’t find the answer to whether or not a whisper will cause a topic to show up in Latest, so I did a quick test. The answer is, no. Apparently a whisper doesn’t change the bump date for anybody, even those who can see it.
