This website has limited resources, and its main mission is weakened by its support for ATM, to the extent that ATM draws on a disproportionate share of those resources.

I see it as an imperfect solution to a problem where there are no perfect solutions. As an alternative, I wouldn't have a problem with moderators more aggresively shutting down "shouting match" threads that don't go anywhere, but it would be a lot of work for them, they probably wouldn't like shutting down so many threads, and it naturally would lead to claims that some were being "singled out."
