It's easy for those of us on the outside to vastly underestimate the fine balancing act it must be (and was) to both get and then keep the system working well. So kudos to all of you for doing such a terrific job at balancing all the different parts that make up PT.

But with that said, even though it's really hard to tell what consequences different changes will have, it's still fun to make suggestions even if many of them aren't so great.
