Wait...
You did this on purpose, not just by accident, but rather to "prove a point"??
Not sure that was a good idea. If you think there is change needed, there
are channels to suggest it, which may be a better approach than deliberatley
doing things the wrong way in order to stir up controversy. IMHO anyway.
For example you could post to admin.suggestions... the market groups
charters are under discussion of revision as it is and this would be a good
time to make such a change.

This is not a good reason. If it were then posting anything to anywhere
would be allowed. And it's not. compartmentalisation means everything has a
place. You may not like that but that's the way it is.

Not a bad suggestion (as a guideline, not sure it's enforcable as a rule but
maybe??). Hence XFUT admin.suggestions...
