Would you entertain the remote possibility that the suggestion was declined on it's merit?

Yes, I have thought of that too. But I made worse suggestions that were admitted to be rated by members and were accepted. Why this one is simply rejected without members having an opportunity to vote on it? It certainly reinforces the premises of my review.

Well for one thing, this site is a business, not a democracy. For another thing, the relative merit of this suggestions compared to other's that you have made that are by your own assessment worse, is simply your opinion. A large aspect of this site, for other members anyway, is social. We wnjoy the sharing, the banter, a few laughs and from time to time a spirited difference of opinion. We keep coming back because it gives us an outlet of some type, for writing, expressing ourselves, making connections. I'm sure you are gettiing something from the site too, since you come regularly. But a lot of what you are asking for seems to me to be contrary to the social side of what people come here for. If you can't play well with others, maybe you should consider finding an outlet for your need to express yourself elsewhere. It's a big world wide web.
