edit: censorship?
UPDATE #2: Some of you might find it interesting that I made a very similar post on the ByteBall bitcointalk.org thread which immediately got deleted by a moderator - no reason given.
Why was my post deleted? What was so offensive? Did I not make some valid points and provide a decent suggestion to manage the optics of the announcement?
As a sincere ByteBall fan who is only seeking the best for the project, I find this kind of censorship deeply disturbing.
I have no idea why your post was deleted, moderation on this forum is totally out of my control.

I understand it was painful for many community members to hear that the March airdrop was cancelled. But it had to be done for the reasons I stated in November and repeated a few days ago. Back in summer, there were concerns about what happens when we distribute all the coins and the 10%-20% monthly holding reward goes away. Since then, we reduced the reward, slowed down the balance-based airdrops, and finally phased them out. Now, the concerns are over. Going forward.
