Let alone weighing the merits of the proposal in the first place. The broader context of the proposal is loosely tied to the subject matter of the list. It is almost offensive to be making such a proposal without seemingly any thought being put into the proposal. If you still wish to earn any respect you'd do it without asking. Then we can see where the quality of support of the library goes from then on there. In terms of "reasons" as to why you should or should not, where does one even begin with listing the pros and cons?
