Are you/they planning to add them together against the “stay open” option again too?

No. Why would I do that? Since contest mode allows voting for multiple options, that would result in some people getting two votes.

See here for why the two protest options were combined.

Because it happened last time when the poll didn't go as you wanted. I'm sure you understand many having skepticism about this.

You don't know how I wanted the poll to go. It absolutely wasn't clear how it would go at the time of the edit; about 150 votes had been cast at the time compared to an eventual 2200.

It feels kind of telling reading your responses. If you wanted it open you would have gone with the option that got the most votes:" open back up".
