Hmm ... if you think "stuffing an issue back into the closet" is unfair, what do you think of "drama-queening" in retrospect? The former was intended as an echo of the latter, including the — rather odd, considering the topic — undertones.
Drama-queening in this case is complaining loudly to an inappropriate audience and escalating the issue out of proportion. A simple private message to gwern would have cleared things up pretty quickly.
If it's worth saying, but not worth its own post, even in Discussion, it goes here.
