I'm not sure if that's a good thing or not. YMMV but IMHO this is a good thing. PEPs provide a single point of reference to a discussion that would otherwise be spread over multiple centi-threads (not that PEPs don't create centi-threads, but they outlive them in a way).

Plus the PEP can help prevent multiple mega-threads as the same idea is revisited again and again and again...
