Some of the people on that form seem to not understand the idea of "pages for more popular works will have more stuff on them".
My first reaction was "How exactly is that our job?" On the other hand, it's something people could certainly do on review pages. (Uh, are we going to have those?)
But in the general stuff-on-the-works-page sense... what is the point? It reminds me of the rape trope renames, where they seemed to be stumbling over themselves to not sound like they were endorsing it, when the very idea that they ever could have been is ludicrous. If a work involves ~whatever~, it's going to be right there in the description and/or tropes listed. Anyone who doesn't already get that ~whatever~ is a bad thing to do in real life isn't going to suddenly get it due to anything we can do. And if someone does get that, but still enjoys fictional works which contain ~whatever~ for reasons that may or may not have to do with it containing ~whatever~, I don't give a rat's ass. They don't ping my "I should be worried by this person" radar anywhere near as much as the person who *does* obsess over other people's taste in fiction.
