I assumed that you meant what you said when you wrote:

>to have been pulled yonks ago

and:

>Groups that should be pulled take (relatively) ages to be

and:

Now that you've contracticted yourself [dropping groups is bad,
pulling groups is good], I really don't know what you think :-(  

Unless the words "drop" and "pull" don't mean the same.

No.  Perhaps you could try again?

>But what I am also doing is pointing out the lack of transparency.

I understand that point.  It's the rest of your argument that's beyond
me.

Regards, Mike.
