Oops, isn't that something we fixed recently as a "bug"?

Well, people are not perfect and they are free to express their opinions
based on faulty understanding of reality on their blogs.  The right things
to do are (1) ignore them on the list and not waste many people's time,
and/or (2) educate them, but in private or in a circle where many other
similar ignorants benefit from such education.  That is not here but
perhaps on #monotone channel?
