It was said on the list, but I think the problem with the revision comparison is that it's rather easy to stumble upon. Most easter eggs require some sort of complex operation (Konami code, whatever) to trigger them. Anyhow, what was said is that this shouldn't really be an easter egg trigger, it should be an error trigger. I don't think the uproar would be periodically happening if it was something that required more effort on the part of the user to make it happen (i.e. they basically should need to go seek it out, not have it happen while they were randomly trying to do something).
