Thankfully this thread has sorted itself out into a reasonably mature discussion on the issues of concern and the few who try to deflect it with conspiracy theories or "sounds good questions" of little substance have been ignored.
Unfortunately, due to the constraints we have with the server this thread has reached its limit of 100 replies and must be closed. Please feel free to continue the debate in a new thread and you can of course reference this thread.
I would like to suggest that technical discussion take place in the Tech log forum.
