It makes talk pages look terrible to read and follow and gives everything a horrible grey colour. It '''removes''' the artistic flair editors put in to designing their lovely signatures, and all the colour that comes along with it. It destroys the soul of the wiki.
It's clear the Wikimedia Foundation and MediaWiki developers are working on a way to make talk pages more accessible through the current infrastructure of a normal page, as opposed to a complete rewrite of how talk pages work. Because of this and the concerns above, I'm refusing to implement this feature and will resist any calls to put it in {{grin}}
