the solution is not to criticize everyone who offers a proposal

I think the 'solution' is exactly to criticize everyone who offers a proposal, but do so in a respectful, clear and constructive manner, highlighting the good and the bad.

Indeed, I think that Aaronson's proposal was interesting, new and very worth of reflection and further expansion. Yet I still think it fails, and badly.
