No, I *do not* want to revote. This RFC simply takes a formal approach to
approve the syntax that came in 2nd based on concerns raised with the @@
syntax.

Now that it seems the technical concerns around @@ have been resolved by
another pending, passing, RFC, I'm still here wanting us to talk about the
impact of @@ on static analysis tools. Apparently, internals doesn't care
about these projects. I care and I'm trying to help. I'm not trying to
revote until I get the vote I want. I'm just a dude that had some free time
while on vacation when he saw a chance to contribute.

I see two possible outcomes:

Release Managers collectively should decide what we do to move forward.
Either accept @@, we'll decline this RFC and we can move on to the next
nearest bikeshed.

OR

If Release Managers don't want to, or can't collectively make a decision
then this RFC should go to a vote and we'll see what 2/3s of the group
want.

I'm fine with either outcome.
