Etymtree deletions

...Is that a "No"?

I'm not sure what you're asking me to explain.

I would like you to explain what you hoped to achieve by removing {{etymtree}}, and why you deleted the pages, and further why you did this all without any discussion (if that is indeed the case).

The etymtree is horrible and unworkable. When I watch pages, I don't want to have to check for the presence of an etymtree template and watch it, just so I can keep track of edits to descendants. The new system I made doesn't have that issue. Why do you think {{etymtree}} is better?
