As far as ML noise goes, that's what killfiles and client-side filters are for, no? People can (or at least should be able to) configure their mailreaders to mute people or topics they want to mute.
This. This so very much.
We're all consenting adults here. Just hit that delete button, ESC-d, Del or adjust your scorefile/junk filter, and enjoy a quiet evening in your very own bubble of comfortable reality without dissenting opinions! ;)
So you're saying that instead of fixing the problem, every user should remove the offending posts. The problem here are a small handful of people who start flames and spread FUD.
