And now I am imagining some video where they go down into sulfur mine and tell one of the miners "We bring great news for you! Github changed the default name of master code branches to something else! Gitlab too! It was kind of a little bit annoying a little but they're doing it anyway!"
Yeah and just think, then we could also tell those people about how a wrongly accused man in not their country was released after charitable efforts to clear his name, in the process overturning a negligent evidence handling process which will make things much better going forwards!
And...it still wouldn't matter to those people at all because it wouldn't change their specific situation!
But the parent argument is valid, you just somehow missed it despite it being descibed and illustrated.
github's action isn't absurd because it doesn't change any random person's situation. It's absurd because of the specific people whose specific situations are not improved.
