Likely yes. Can we go as far as discouraging |
|
According to the User Guide menu, it is already mildly discouraged

Well, I'd merge, but merging is blocked by the bot. Which is pretty annoying to be honest. Why do we need a bot to tell us whether we are allowed to merge or not? |
|
We block merging if the label „needs comment/discussion“ is set. IMHO that makes sense because it prevents premature merging when there are still to be discussed aspects. I had set this mover the question whether tight-layout should be formally discouraged. But that‘s also something we can discuss later/separately. My focus in this PR is to guide users by stating preference between tight-layout and constrained-layout. Therefore, I’ve removed the label. |
