All,

Does someone else also have an opinion concerning this (please)?

So we CAN do it

IMHO, John, you are simply avoiding/sidestepping the issue.

As you've shown in your last two e-mails:

-- The new definitions do not contradict the v3.01 definitions
-- The v3.01 definitions do fail when using the intersection operation
-- The new definitions do repair the failure in the v3.01 definitions

Your choice to use addition instead of intersection is no suprise to me,
considering these facts.

I agree this choice is arbitrary. But such an arbitrary choice made by a
user under the v3.01 definitions still leads to catastrophic failure.
Are you seriously advocating we should stick with the v3.01 definitions?

Nate
