My question - to those who favor change - would be, what has happened that a "need" has arisen to change the status quo (i.e., what "problem" has suddenly popped up out of the blue that has been created, in some way, by displaying post counts)? How would the change "resolve" the "problem"? Will this change improve the FT experience, have no impact, or will it detract from the FT experience?

FT, to date, has been pretty dang successful. I don't think we want to be tinkering frivolously or pointlessly with something that clearly works for the vast majority.
Are we twins separated at birth?
