In response to our objection to the Prompt API, some folks replied "well, fix it. Propose something better". This is something we end up doing a lot at Firefox…

…I'm currently finishing a redesign of popover="hint" github.com/whatwg/html/..., we're proposing an alternative to the translation API after finding security issues in the Chrome API github.com/mozilla/stan.... We provided a lot of fixes to the design & spec of anchor position & the nav API…

…some of this is just part of participating in web platform design, but in some cases it's a little unbalanced. Given the same resources, I think we'd be in a better place if Chrome was working on fewer features, but fully-baking them. I don't think it's on Mozilla to fix every half-baked proposal.

Also, the lack of an alternative proposal is not a good reason to ship the half-baked thing.
