Look at it from a theme author's point of view. You've already<br>
reviewed it. It's marked "not-accepted" and "closed".<br>
<br>
That doesn't suggest some form of "finality" to you?<br>
<br>
So what does the theme author do? He reopens it and adds comments.<br>
This is the way things happen in the core trac, after all. People<br>
reopen it when they begin discussing it or have more to add.<br>
<br>
You going and instantly closing it again, summarily rejecting his<br>
points by giving some link to a document somewhere else... well, that<br>
doesn't leave a really good taste in his mouth, does it? It doesn't<br>
show that anybody is listening, or cares, or wants to help. It's just<br>
rejection, absolute and final.<br>
<br>
Of course they're going to get angry and upset when being treated like that.<br>
