Common oppose outcome
The following is the common outcome of oppose !votes at RFA:
The oppose !vote is made
The oppose !vote is challenged
The oppose !voter doubles down/stands their ground
The oppose !voter is badgered further by one or more editors
One or more bystanders say the badgering is disruptive
