I'm a member of but do not speak for the AC.  My personal take is the
more feedback on policy proposals the better, regardless of whether it
conforms to Mr. Dillon's syntactical stipulations.  +1, while terse,
is entirely understandable and far better than deafening silence when
it comes to figuring out whether the community is in favor of or
opposed.
