No, don’t respond in that way. Please, make your case.
You have quoted some interesting statistics, but that I personally do not find “alarming,” let alone “a portent of The End.” (But I have been wrong, on at least two occasions ... well, maybe three.) While I, and perhaps others, am not yet persuaded-of ... neither perhaps fully informed-of ... your premise and conclusions and subsequent recommendations, the subject is most-certainly not one to be closed.
You’re not exactly the stranger here, even though someone (snicker ...) lately didn’t seem to know who you are.
What do you recommend that PerlMonks should do now, and why? Whether-or-not these stats are tea-leaves pointing towards the end of the world as we know it, this site probably is more-than due for some facelifts and re-purposing, and your thoughts are to be valued.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
