The jury must speak—time is running out

I know—I’ve already asked. Not once, not twice, but three times. First, at the end of the original post, The case isn’t closed: padding-left vs margin-left, where I invited you to weigh in. Then again, the following week, as the silence lingered. And once more, more pointedly, the week after. And yet… the jury remains silent.

One brave soul has dared to speak. One lone comment stands as a beacon of civic duty in the face of the padding and margin mafia. But where are the rest of you? I still miss 11 comments. Eleven jurors who have yet to deliberate. Eleven voices waiting to be heard.

I don’t want to nag, but the case deserves a conclusion. You’ve witnessed the rise and fall of padding-left, the bold emergence of margin-left, and the footnotes that tried to sway your judgment in the appeal. I asked—no, implored—“The jury must speak first.” That was back on October 9, 2025. Now, the clock is ticking. My spam settings are merciless: comments close automatically after 30 days. That means this weekend is your last chance to cast your vote on the case padding-left vs. margin-left.

Last call: the verdict needs you.

If, like me, you’re tired of this trial—if you’ve rolled your eyes at the reversals or chuckled at the metaphors—you can help bring it to a close. Now is the time to speak. Whether you’re siding with padding-left, rallying behind margin-left, or simply ready to move on from this courtroom drama—say so. You don’t have to be an expert. If you’ve followed the series, you’re more than qualified to weigh in.

So, dear reader, let’s put an end to this trial. Let’s deliver a verdict.
