Replying while @dang is editing - so might be talking past current parent:

I suppose I shouldn't be surprised that Arc/clarc would be modified as news is modified (Arc sort of being built around news in the first place).

I just wouldn't expect there to be hn specific sauce in clarc that would make sense to excise if opening up clarc; AFAIK it's been stated that there's some secret sauce wrt fighting spam, detecting voting rings and so on...

Then again, thinking more about it, it sounds reasonable that some of that might land on the Arc/clarc side, not in news.

[Ed: I think that turned out quite well]

(sorry for editing on the fly - I can explain why I do that but I know it can be annoying when someone is trying to reply! and yes, all that sounds right.)

I'm like you, there is an edit button, so I use it. I have to make a choice and I choose all the people who will arrive in the future over the small number of people who might have read what I've already poorly written, people who can get over it if they want to, even using their edit button if they wish.
