 * A. at least it makes it an official chat and that confusion is cleared up
 * B. we don't have to go through all votes that were impacted by discord and re-tally votes that don't involve decisions impacted by discord
 * C. i can vote to remove it.

I mean, it's even more work to make it unofficial compared to work to make it official. Because making it unofficial means going through all those dozens of voting threads for mainspace, internal management, user reports, and promotions, and re-tallying them ALL to make sure one doesn't succeed/fail due to discord, which would be "unofficial". And don't get me started on the madness it'd put on the anti-harassment rules... I feel like mentioning this again. Making it unofficial is so much more work than making it official, and just voting to close and remove it, and removing it from the wiki like that.
