I agree that we don't need a Deep End if the idea behind it is that we are going to be more brutally honest about what we don't like than we might be in the main metrical board. The idea that anyone is holding back negative criticism on the main metrical board out of some unspoken code of kindness doesn't strike me as accurate, but if it is accurate, then that's all the more reason to get rid of the Deep End. I wouldn't want the existence of the Deep End to give anyone the impression that the main metric board is where we are expected to pull our critical punches.
But it would definitely be nice to have a non-public board, whether it's "deep" or not.
