1. "When you have to say something important you can't"

- Conceptions are not arguments or announcements, they are artworks. I've never seen someone who has to "create an artwork" so urgently, unless he/she's working for some art company with a deadline. We are not some art company with a deadline, we are a free kinda-artistic playground. If someone has to announce that the world will end tomorrow, he/she can always do that in the Conception Lab, in message walls, in forums, in blog posts, etc. which has nothing to do with conceptions. Ok whatever, it was just a mild comparison.

2. "Why would bad conceptions be created without a limit, but not with a limit?"

- Thing is, bad conceptions are usually made by bad conceptors, and bad conceptors won't just suddenly make a great conception out of nowhere unless he/she is actually a ninja master playing dumb. They must gradually improve. I don't plan to ELIMINATE bad conceptions with this method, I only plan to REDUCE the amount of bad conceptions created, thus giving room for better management, because no one likes to work with too many trash conceptions, thus conception rules/merits etc. won't be properly enforced and we'll back to square one. And if a "bad conceptor" think about the conceptions more carefully, even if he/she still makes a bad conception at least it will be less like a one-dime Chinese knockoff anime toy. Not exactly what I meant, I mean that how does adding a limit improve the goodness of a conception? Plus it's not like people have a deadline to concept, so there is no reason for them to not "think about the conceptions more carefully", if they don't then a bad conception comes out and gets deleted. Ezpz.

3. "And if one of the conception is bad we can just delete it."

- Very true. But look at the actual number of terrible conceptions that are being deleted. That's different, I said we CAN delete it, not WILL delete it, still yeah. I should check the targeted for deletion pages category and do a wild clean-up.

4. I did say that this is a more extreme method, which means it shouldn't be enforced if too many people oppose it, didn't I?

I know but that doesn't mean I can't talk/discuss about it.
