It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

Imo the bike is called whatever it is to understand frame geometry and tire fitment. So it would still be a cross country bike.
If you take a CX bike and put flat bars on it... It's still a CX bike.
Same for DH, same for BMX, track, etc, etc

Moots is just doing marketing things.
