Those aren't quite like for like comparisons - Two Tailed Fox is a bureaucrat on Yu-Gi-Oh Wiki. He is clearly biased towards PI, but that view does seem to be vaguely shared by the wider community there. Dinoguy1000 seems to be the only notable opposition, and I would agree with his points about the general lack of argument provided in the proposal (although that is the case for almost every PI thread I've seen). The note about preventing reversion of the conversion in the closure is an over-the-top approach to take in my view, but that may be how they do things there. Nonetheless, it would be a cause for concern if an admin or bureaucrat did the same on my home wiki.

As a philosophical point, Fandom claims that PI improves the infobox experience for mobile because they cannot style all possible variants of infoboxes generated using wikitext or Lua. Yet if they allowed some user-defined styling in mobile, they might find the problem vanishing. It seems an awful lot like a problem of their own design.
