Why doesn't Grant Imahara warrant a black bar?

Question

"When someone important to the community dies, a thin black bar is added to the top of HN as a mark of respect"Because of his inspiration and outreach and attitude I'd think he'd be a great fit for the honor.

I think a more powerful statement would be for us to ask that Grant Imahara be honored by the black bar, rather than ask why he doesn't warrant one.
The former is a gentle request, the latter is inflammatory.
For this, I ask @dang that we black-bar for Grant Imahara.
