This is a part of a longer discussion, originating with an article
by Erik v.d. Poel. Please refer to the row of articles, if you need
more information. In short, Doug has said that the problem that Erik
raised was not a problem, and I tend to believe Doug.

Is your opinion based on similar arguments as Doug's?
Or what is it based on? I think that solving Erik's (and SC2's)
problem with some interpretation wordings would be a good result
of this news discussion.
