   @zachleat esp irksome given the usually non diverse (eg non representative sampling) and generally less experienced nature of the samples. it's like asking kids which training wheels are best for professional downhill mountain biking.

      @brianleroux I’m fine with a good sample of experience levels and I wouldn’t want to pre-select for years of experience or anything like that. But yes, please report diversity too!

         @zachleat I too dislike a lot of things about credentialing / 'appeals to authority' but we have the exact opposite problem these days. Also, on the diversity angle, ageism is a part of this discussion. Maybe there's a reason devs w >N years experience eschew the the JS part of the web ecosystem. We should probably want to fix that too.
