Good question! However, you seem to have misinterpreted my words and/or intent. I wasn't, and am not, suggesting reversion. Please re-read what I wrote. So, not wishing to engage in a longwinded and somewhat pointless interchange, I'll just move to the endpoint: "Please excuse my ignorance, but what did/does your edit achieve?"
I await your reply. In good faith,   

responded to your note
I responded to your note as requested, have found no reply as indicated by you (above) as preferred there  will dump it after another week without reply   

My apologies - I don't wish to sound brain dead - but I'm not sure I understand your reply.
That is, unless you are saying: "As you requested, I have replied. Promptly. But you haven't responded. If you haven't responded within a week, I'll "dump it".
If that's the case, then: Sorry, I didn't notice your reply. Mea Culpa. Thanks for the note on my talk page.
If otherwise: Sorry, I don't understand.
Cheers,
