I hope my posts havent personally insulted you bro, honest, it's not my intent at all, I'm just speaking from the heart and posting my thoughts that I'm "thinking out loud" so to speak, so forgive if they are a bit heavy handed or seem obtuse.
I disagree with your point about neutrality not being a stance. It is a stance, look up conscientious objectors. People have a right to choose to be neutral towards a matter, and on the internet, in a forum like this where ideas flow, i think it's kinda a nice thing to have, a neutral ground so to speak, as we are a forum "without borders" or limits to the jurisdiction we can reach ... we host people of all sorts, and as such cultures mix, and people moderating to take a neutral stand, is honorable - to the whole of us as a collective and international SFF community. And as such for their bravery taking a neutral stance, i sincerely commend the staff.
And i also disagree that it's about technicalities, ideas are a very fluid and subjective concept and for them to flow a neutral ground is best i think. This allows the best, most creative, and innovative ideas in SFF to float to the top, and allows the uninspired and unoriginal ones to drown in the depths of the forum pages. I think both sides must be allowed to germinate, let the ones who get fed the most support, live. And the ones who are exposed for shameless behavior, die.
