There are at least two questions where this change has been suggested/discussed:

  • Approve as too minor. An old question where @Shog in 13th of August makes many suggestions, one of them being:

    1. Get rid of the "too minor" reject reason entirely.
  • @Shog's question (20th of August): What guidance should be given when edits are rejected?, where he starts with:

    and where @Gilles' answer has among other things:

    We're getting a better mechanism for too minor, good riddance.
