Change in policy for Kubuntu Members

[Xen]

Chesterton's Fence comes to mind: Just because you don't think there is 
a reason for something, doesn't mean there isn't one:

"In the matter of reforming things, as distinct from deforming them, 
there is one plain and simple principle; a principle which will probably 
be called a paradox. There exists in such a case a certain institution 
or law; let us say, for the sake of simplicity, a fence or gate erected 
across a road. The more modern type of reformer goes gaily up to it and 
says, “I don’t see the use of this; let us clear it away.” To which the 
more intelligent type of reformer will do well to answer: “If you don’t 
see the use of it, I certainly won’t let you clear it away. Go away and 
think. Then, when you can come back and tell me that you do see the use 
of it, I may allow you to destroy it."
