While I can see your point here, I'm afraid I'll have to plead the mugwump 
syndrome.

Why?  Because then, in the new bee's eye's, Aaron then becomes responsible 
for something not of his making, and which he has no power to correct.  I 
would object to that were I in Aaron's shoes.

I for one am very pleased that Aaron has blessed us with this software.  
But this scrimmage line pileup I see here, with Aaron on the bottom, flat 
needs to stop, its unfair at best.
