Thumb system has been established in August 2011:
Thread 140785

It has been challenged a few times in the next few years:
Thread 142975
Thread 142255
Thread 143037

Bonus points if you find an argument in later discussion which had been brought forward up to that summary.
But of course discussion went on:

Thread 147305
Thread 148048
Thread 148747
Thread 140785

and on:

Thread 154250
Thread 156975
Thread 166269
Thread 170300
Thread 176510

Gold and Platinum Bonus points if you find new arguments in the next to last or last batch of threads...

Like @Moonbus I remember a poll on this. The poll as such (Number 27) is not available anymore.
Edit: I found the relevant thread:
Thread 165951

@Ponderable

I'm sure those threads are about exposing the identity of the thumbs...

My idea is limiting the number of them so they have more meaning when used.

Has been suggested before...some threads are about that idea.

It can be discussed evidently.

However the question is what has changed, so that the same arguments mean soemting different now or have a different impact?
