Do I think this concept is useless or flawed? No, of course not, I started this debate to find out why it hadn't been done, because I thought it was possible. Do I think that this concept is practically applicable? Given the right conditions, priorities and restrictions yes I do. Do I think that those will ever arise? No, I don't.
