I agree with the conclusions drawn here, but feel that it's possibly worth making a stronger general statement that policy should never prevent the implementation of a well-considered simple solution. I would like some further analysis of Sam's proposal, though - I don't think there's any advantage in undoing the existing solution, but if it would work then it's maybe a more straightforward solution for any similar issues in future?
