Maybe. 

If half the population discussing a proposal is hung up on a false, uninformed notion of what a commons is and opposes a proposal for that reason, we seem to have no choice but to clarify what the concept means.  But I agree that the discussion can get sidetracked in endless ideological cruft. And probably will.
