Idealism is a disease, bruh.

But the question I asked was directed to you: why do you think that I am only allowed to voice a problem if I know the solution *and* can implement it? Everyone can bring up problems or issues as he sees fit. I'm not a civil or structural engineer, but it's okay for me to tell someone that a bridge collapsed.

I said "complain", not "notify with a conciliatory tone and civility." If there are bugs in our MediaWiki templates, it is most likely that we already know about them - we just can't find them. You are welcome to scour the code for the missing or misplaced curly brackets, or bad math expression. Trust me, though, I have done that myself. We don't just write broken templates on purpose, and think "Terrific! Launch it!" That said, I welcome bug reports on these templates, even if my response ends up being "you are welcome to scour the template for the missing or misplaced brackets."

If the templates errors were caused by meddling Fandom employees frankensteining broken Lua into functioning Mediawiki templates, then it's a Lua problem. None of us have practical experience with writing or troubleshooting Lua, and if you also don't know Lua, you are no more informed than we are, so we are on equal footing. We know about the bugs. We're annoyed about them too. Complain to people who can fix it, not us. We've made our own complaints and requests. No dice.
