List some possible reasons why arriving at consensus about decorators has been so hard (or impossible) to acheive. There are certainly more.
First reaction: Each proposal, by its very syntax, suggested a range of non-decorator use cases and semantics. Unfortunately, we have dozens of syntax proposals with "ranges of implication" which do not overlap, and therefore cannot be evaluated fairly (very little "apples to apples" comparison). Most of the remaining discussions addressed Beauty, Fear, Magic, or Intuition, which take more effort and space to analyze properly than your typical Usenet post allows.
