There is nothing stupid about standing and I have not personally seen anyone suggest that there is. It is possible,however, what you perceive as "posters that are done with their M come back here to post how stupid it is to 'stand' or still want our WAS after long periods of time" are merely old timers who see so many standing while not taking care of business. If you are not protecting yourself emotionally and/or financially you are hurting yourself needlessly. There are many people on this board who have divorced and still support anyone who chooses to stand.

Look not mournfully into the past. It comes not back again. Wisely improve the present. It is thine. Go forth to meet the shadowy future, without fear. {Henry Wadsworth Longfellow}
