In theory, skills are what matter, but I don't find that true in practice. Appearance matters more. A long tenure is a good look to most.
Or they could, like, take responsibility for their actions that led them to that point?
Ah yes, the classic "wage gains are eating into our profits" inflation.
> It is we, not our technical creations, who are to blame, for failing to encourage and enable the radical act of belief in something above and beyond, and external to, the self.

[Edit]
Any observations can be an event, and a stopping point.
[Edit] I could put a resistor on the table and call it a system, and wait for it eternally, but I'm not sure that's useful. You need a desired outcome, and some limits to make rational decisions. Actually, mathematically, we can find certain limits.
[Edit]
You also can't prove a negative, as some future state may eventually disprove it. So you will have to assert something like "I expect such results at such time."
[edit] You can also consider the transient and steady states:
[1] steady state: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steady_state
[2] transient https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transient_state
[edit]
My comment about the start doesn't actually address your concern about the end of the transient state. I think there are options. Any observable result can be considered the output of the system.

Yoda would say "do or do not, there is no try." I prefer "there is only trying."

i need coffee >.<
[edit] But if it doesn't, then it's just a fun trip for the delegates.

As to your second point, reddit is not a public archive, or a court room, or any sort of entity that I would trust or expect to retain, much less make accessible, "public" discussions, technical or not. They have no obligation to give you anything, and the moment it's profitable for them to switch to pay-to-play, you can bet they will. Steve Huffman, the CEO of reddit, killed all the 3rd party apps accessing reddit, no? Not someone I will place my trust in.
[edit- added the below]
I would also add the court of public opinion is a place no one should be tried, and peoples' privacy trumps your desire for information, so it makes perfect sense that comments would be removed or stripped of a byline. Adding a byline redaction feature would be cool imo.
