I dont consider it a step back. In both cases the concepts was

OK, so using unarchived and closed channels is preferred.
We dont have artificially invent issues. It is a completely public
channel. Archives are available if you want them.
Actually, this is a little more than artificially invented issue.
The problem with IRC is that conversations take place in real time.
This is a problem for projects that may have particepants in
different parts of the world with different time zones.
Sure but that is a completely different issue which in no way makes
the channel closed. It is not hard to setup bots which automatically
archives all the conversations in the channel. I suspect there might
already be public services which do just that.
Archives makes the channel open to see, but in a community project it
must also be open to participate even if you happen to be in another
time zone.
I doubt very much that people using IRC will start their work day by
scanning the backlog of IRC messages that have taken place during the
night, answers them and then wait to the next day for their answer.
