It's not a bug, it's a feature! (programming.dev)

I've noticed a small issue with my email client for quite some time now where composing a new email will have several blank lines by default.

It's not too much of an issue to simply delete them but hey, maybe no one had pointed this out before! So I filed a bug report only to get this response... basically it's not a bug, its a feature!

the person saying “I hate it when editors do it” is really not understanding why this is a feature and not a bug.

No, I get that it's not a bug. I just don't like it, personally, and want to be able to turn it off. Don't know where read that I thought it was a bug.
