Why we should have gotten rest yesterday. Just not now.

Here are the reasons on why I wanted to get rest way back when we were THIS close: http://i.imgur.com/C6tbeNl.png
===--------------------------------------
= Again, I'm not saying to get rest.. But when we were here: http://i.imgur.com/C6tbeNl.png We should have got it. =
- Rest is essentially a full restore, M4 can take ~12 hits from most Pokemon(assuming no crits), even Earthquakes from Flygon take >10 hits. The fastest way that we know of so far that M4 can die from is ~6 Dragon Claw's from the Salamence on Drake's team. Rest only lasts 2 turns too, which is an overall gain.
-----------------------------------------
- If we actually put it into slot 4, we would have ended up rarely using it. If we did use it, it'll probably be late enough into the E4 that it will heavily benefit us. | Furthermore, any up/left while in the move menu gets us off slot 4. They're the most common commands, along with the obvious A, in battles.
-----------------------------------------
- Using rest in front of Dusclops/Ludicolo/Shiftry would be uncommon if it's in slot 4; and even if it DOES mess something up, it would overall be beneficial everywhere else in the E4 run and any other run of the E4 ever. 5+ saves from Rest > 1 rest failure.
-----------------------------------------
- There was never a risk of a major botnet that could sway the votes, we were too late into the night for him to attack(He never attacked at that time, ever). Maybe a small one from a nobody, but it wouldn't be enough to sway the votes. He didn't even attack that day anyway.
-----------------------------------------
- Deleting a move has a confirmation window, which is enough time to vote B out of there(We would probably do this in democracy).
-----------------------------------------
- Rest, while being unreliable to use when we want to due to hopefully being in slot 4, would probably keep us alive through the entire E4 unless we get KO'd in 3-4 hits, maybe due to an unlucky crit combo or Sealeo managing to pull off a x5 Ice Ball(AKA Ice Rollout)
-----------------------------------------
- Faithfulforce, z33k and many others(and you, of course) can command the chat in case you're concerned that we would have overwrote rollout. Furthermore, we could have just moved rollout to Slot 4 to prevent any risks period.
-----------------------------------------
- If rest happened to suck, even past all of my arguments, then we could have overwrote it with Waterfall. And Waterfall > Rock Smash for sure.
-----------------------------------------
and finally, just one extra thing. It's that some of you reasoned that "If the majority doesn't want rest, then we shouldn't get it"
But really, what if the majority was misinformed? What if it really is better for us to get rest? Wouldn't it have been better to inform the Twitch chat and Reddit and turn things for the better?
