The news mod team has asked to no longer be a part of the project until we have a composite tool that polls multiple sources for a more balanced view.
It will take a few hours, but FOR NOW there won’t be a bot giving reviews of the source.
The goal was simple: make it easier to show biased sources. This was to give you and the mods a better view of what we were looking at.
The mod team is in agreement: one source of truth isn’t enough. We are working on a tool to give a composite score, from multiple sources, all open source.
Perhaps it is true that you’ve considered all feedback, but I’m sure you can acknowledge my point that comments from mods suggesting that the most downvoted comments are all opposition to the bot, or that votes on upvoted comments ought to be ignored because of vote manipulation might cause those who are opposed to feel as though their opinions have been dismissed.
Regardless, while I look forward to your response should you wish to offer one, I’ve had my say and I feel as though I’ve been heard.

That was my good faith attempt to paraphrase this comment:
I don’t think that’s a dishonest or disingenuous interpretation.

The rest of the sentence doesn’t change the meaning, nor the point I was making?
