I can think of several recently closed forums where the final "conclusion" included an argument which could easily have been countered had the community had the chance to have their voice heard, instead of one person having the power to both close the forum and present their thoughts at the same time.

The problem with suddenly adding this to policy is that it justifies actions like these, even leaving it up to the individual admin as per what a "moon is made of cheese" argument even is. Apparently to many admins on this site, any argument towards something being valid and included is an argument that the moon is made out of cheese.

EDIT: Like this thread for instance. There's a lot that's claimed below this post, but since all of this was stated AS THE CONCLUSION TO THE DISCUSSION, there will apparently never be an open space to discuss if these points are agreed upon by the community.
