Since I only ignored the original thread sent to AUR general and no
other thread, I only reply to AUR.

I agree with Florian.

For those who guess somebody misquotes, there still are the mailing list
archives, so don't worry that

"I don't like Bananas in Pyjamas."

by bad quoting becomes

"I [snip] like Pyjamas."

Sometimes people guess that the summarized quotes don't reflect the
original opinion. Indeed, this seldom happens, but there are still the
archives for clarification, IOW there's no need to quote trillions of
lines and/or (multiple) copies of signatures.
