Aw, the front page behavior changed. Before if you removed all sidebar content with the customization, the main blocks would become bigger and fill the rest of the space, now it's just empty.
Kinda reminds me of a life lesson in the movie "Bronx Tale". Guy1 owes another, guy2 $10 and the guy2 keeps chasing guy1 around the city trying to get his money back, till someone tells him, "stop, you got off easy, its only $10. That guy will never bother you again or ask you for money again, so take it as a win."
