If this is a reason to close the bug, then I fear for the future of
Ubuntu as a community.

Is the community supposed to meekly accept the judgements of the dev team?
And where is it written that the dev team knows best?

In some quarters, such an attitude would be regarded as arrogant.

Sorry, but this kind of statement really riles people. I suggest that the
dev team needs to listen to the community respectfully, and consider
opinions other than its own.
