VanderL (source): And contrary to what some people have asserted here’ "I don’t know" is not a valid answer for an ATM proposer. It can get you banned, or it can get the thread closed, or both.

Sorry if I gave the impression that this was an example where a ban or "threadlock" occurred, I merely wanted to highlight how a discussion of a paper can end because the ATM rules demand a proponent (otherwise "there's nothing to discuss"). An example where "I don't know" ended a thread is still on my "search" list.
Cheers.
