either we go by the book or we dont. if we're going to cherry pick when we do and when we dont, can we really be surprised if someone calls foul?
like i said with the agent ruling, clarify this in the rule itself going forward. then there wont be any need to have discussions about precedent. the outcome will be codified. *shrug*
