Thank you to whoever changed the title to omit the question mark. Question marks at the end of non questions drives me crazy. I’ve tried to accept it and accustom myself to it, but I still always trying to parse it multiple times
That was me. I'm the idiot who originally added it to the published headline before I realized it and removed it.
Any statement can be a question with the right tone. I actually have the exact opposite stance: we expect formal questions when in most cases it makes more sense to simply state something with a lilting tone. But maybe it's just me?
