As far as I remember the final decision was more about what was
actually used in the documentation.

It is not 100% sure that everyone wants both to be changed.

As Stas suggested earlier, it would help if you can convince one
person having voted none or both to choose the empty only option, then
you should be good. It is not that good in general, but for 1/3 of a
voice for something like that ... :)

Also let try to document how to create multiple choices vote better
for the next ones.

Cheers,
