As I understand it, OVERTALK's suggestion (by contrast) is to propose a straight-forward means of stopping contaminated runway overruns (ie. accidents) by enhancing post-touchdown braking effectiveness. That might indeed be an example of something:

Would you not agree? Or are you disputing that backstick braking works? i.e. as a means of achieving effective braking on slick runways. That doesn't appear to be the case. But perhaps you didn't review the whole thread.

Wsherif1 I do agree.
