I’m not discrediting you at all, it just seemed from the way you wrote the part that I quoted that you seem to think you were in the minority on that point. I believe most of us here feel the same way, that it was a reaction to an incident involving a high profile player, and only because it was a high profile player.
We aren't saying they didn't do that. At least I'm not. I'm saying it might backfire, and it's unnecessarily complicated and reeks of stupidity when the previous rule was pretty simple, and works 99.999% of the time.
