Wiktionary
- n. An issue that is subject to, or open for discussion or debate; originally, one to be definitively determined by an assembly of the people.

Although the idea may still be worth debating and exploring academically, and such discussion may be useful for addressing similar issues in the future, the idea has been rendered irrelevant for the present issue.
