deleted post about Gmail email address collisions

I worked pretty hard on a post explaining the Gmail email address collision problem, and why PayPal should consider addressing it. But the post was deleted:

 

/t5/My-Feedback-for-PayPal/Someone-else-has-used-my-gmail-address-and-Paypal-won-t-do/m-p/1285416

 

Any way to find out why, and hopefully have it reinstated?
