The sentiment of the thread aligns with that of official announcements in that Discussions isn't ready to replace Forum, but it isn't too unreasonable to show concern about a new wiki product that will affect the user experience. There are users who feel Forum works for them. While there may be better avenues than a petition, I'm fine so long as that concern follows the local policy and isn't rude. Closing it would not mitigate the genuine concerns, although there has been individual instances of people aggresively presenting opinions as fact or randomly soapboxing.
