You misunderstand how the list works :) If people discuss small details of it passionately, that means they care about the big concept enough that they want to get the details right. If they hated the whole idea, most people would just say "it doesn't make sense" and move on, and there would be 2-3 people discussing something irrelevant until the thread dies off. That happens too, but arguing about a feature doesn't mean people hate it. More often than not it means people are interested in it.
