> yet have a healthy ecosystem

Interpreting "healthy" as "healthy ecosystem" doesn't really make sense in the context of an initiative focused on people being able to swim.

This thread gives me the vibes of arguing for the sake of arguing. The first point mentions "safe" and "healthy", of course this initiative cares about both good water quality and safety from drowning, because those are quite important things for people wanting to swim.

The commenter you respond to joined HN 4 years before you, with 10 times more karma points.

I was very obviously only making a joke. But ironically your reply perfectly embodies the petty, joyless and argumentative side of HN commenting I was alluding to.

> I was very obviously only making a joke.

I know; it was a tentative to make the thread more serious than these snarky, unconstructive comments.
