I'm not entirely sure it merited one. I agree that they missed a rather

Being a cynic, I suspect that editors often select the letters that are
the *least* sensible-sounding, or have bizzare or easily refutable
points. Given that viewpoint, more letters would be a *bad* thing, as
some are bound to be worse. :-)
