Because you regularly make statements, as if they are facts, with no evidence to back them up (remember Sky Atlantic? Several people asked you to produce evidence for your stance on that).
And you've just done it again:

The inference to me from that statement is that the complaints are overwhelming. Sometimes, that can be confused with a small vocal minority making a lot of noise. And that is where the need for real evidence comes in, to distinguish between the two.

You're probably right. But as with all forums and threads within them, occasionally they wander slightly off topic when someone makes a statement that someone responds to.
And with BBC 3 going to a streaming service, surely the BBC falls within the thread topic title? After all, discussion on potential adds on Netflix would be deemed as valid.
But in my view, this aspect of the 'BBC and adds' should have a limited lifespan on this particular thread, given that there is a more appropriate thread on which to discuss it.
