@emilymbender @fps_gbg IMHO the final issue with any issue is that if the people in charge are able to
see issues in things they and can adjust. If they want this and don't care of the repercussions any logical argument is lost on them, the only move is to
replace them. There are some many people with authority that ignore scientific consensus for ideological reasons that is has become really dangerous
in for us.
