There's a difference between having things given to you, and having things taken away from you.

I haven't seen "the slow guys" asking for anything, outside of the Worst Redlight discussion, which I feel is largely academic and highly unlikely anyway. Leave 'em alone. Lots of people got started because goals were attainable. Just because I was an index-runner as a rookie doesn't mean I'm an index-runner now. Nobody held a gun to my head and said "spend money". I did it of my own volition, as will the vast majority of "the slow guys". (I've run -1.000 under... can I join the country club now?)

Gotta work on that sarcasm detection... LOL I really don't think Mr. Miles was being serious.

The biggest thing that needs attention is rules enforcement, and proper HP factoring. (which -=gasp!=- might hurt some of "the slow guys")

Look at the big picture. Not through the peephole.
