Daniele,
Nothing you've written disagrees with what I said, nor do you address
the core concern I bring up about the "change of substance" which is chock
full of opportunities for the law of unintended consequences to come up and
bite us all. Re-reading the existing documents, I find that this language
introduces an entirely different tone to the language of these policies
and, again, implies some dangerous precedents beyond what the writers may
intend. Whether intentional or not, they aren't good and should be avoided.
