I could go for that. Ending the controversy (how do the British manage to pronounce that like they do?) certainly is appealing. Unfortunately, it would likely spark a new controversy (and there is some point to being able to approve nodes but not FP them, especially for poor-quality anonymous nodes). I think part of the problem is that the help pages still reflect the "front page is for special nodes" idea that was the original intent but doesn't match the reality that came to be. If we correct that so the "front-page most nodes" idea can keep hold, then the controversy should decrease. BTW, I'm happy to note that it has been a long time since I've heard arguments about approving one's own nodes, so the "effort to reduce the recurrent moaning and gnashing" appears to have worked. - tye
