Why not essential?

[blryface]

On the information branch, we should add information about why not to use essential and properly note out some issues

[KTrain5169]

Funnily enough KTrain5169/notessential@why-not-essential was my work-in-progress attempt at it

[blryface]

Oh. You may as well just reuse it on the new branch I guess?

[KTrain5169]

That's kinda hard when I don't have write access but oh well

[blryface]

YOU DONT?
I'll fix this rn

[KTrain5169]

yes I will assign myself as well

[KTrain5169]

did not mean to unpin

I think basic info like why essential isn't that great should be on the landing.

[KTrain5169]

sigh when no 500

Is it worth closing this yet? It's an actual experiment now!

Maybe once it's out of pretest phase.

[dhmoconspiracy]

you might want to add something justifying your claim what essential is flawed to the main/index/whatever page, because currently the claims on the site are just a little off-putting and it's kinda hard to find the reasoning

[blryface]

There's a reason why we didn't publish them yet, and why they're in the experiment category. We are still figuring out how to word it in a non confusing way, and sources to cite in the site.

[KTrain5169]

It's done. The Why not Essential section is no longer an experiment.

[blryface]

reopened until we rewrite/reword/??? the section
