While it's a flawed philosophical/psychological model for reality, the seven stages of grief is quite applicable here. Why do people "get over" grief? Time...
Grief never actually goes away, but it lessens to the point where it no longer is emotionally painful to think about. Grief lessens after every thought has been thought, every word has been said, every emotion has been felt, over and over to the point where there's nothing left. Time heals all wounds, as it has been said.
The reason people are not feverously debating IME anymore is time. All of the arguments have been made... over and over. At this point, people are tired of the same things being said ad nauseam.
This is the same reason we see systemd-related comments downvoted and flagged into oblivion. People are tired of it...
So, while most of us agree IME is probably not something the average home user wants or needs, and IME is probably something that should be resisted... people are just not going to get worked up about it at the mere mention of IME anymore. That time passed... and therefore the word "outrage" is wildly inappropriate when applied here.
