It has now crystalized around the worse of the 2 options. It's not a positive outcome. That's ok, it's not like it's going to be the end of the world, no one's life is exploding as a consequence of this, but it's OK to acknowledge that this is not a good outcome for flames fans.
But isn't the X being 2 better than the X being 3 or 4 or 5?

If someone doesn't agree with you that doesn't mean they are "rejecting reality" but you do you.
