Bingo!

But that only tells us the problem that you feel needs addressing and how you've chosen to tackle it.

It doesn't tell us how you think that scenario might come about; nor what other solutions have been considered.

But enough! We've descended below what is apparently the justifiable cut-off for the depth of a discussion (>10), and all we are doing is talking at each other, so let's stop here and see what time will tell us.

Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".
In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
