Nugetx,
For the sake of everyone, why don't you post the full itemized list of your what if's that you still have left to go since it appears that list is what you will keep using to maintain a reason to keep this post alive. Then everyone including Hitech can get this over with. At the same time the answers would give you an education about this game that took some of us 15-17 years to learn unless you don't care about that aspect of this game. And by the end of the responses to your list, you might understand how the game works to keep us playing it for almost 2 decades, or forum members will move on to something else and ignore your posts.
Hitech has "politely" addressed you and your initiative with direct language which is more than many of us ever get in the Wish List, still, any forum has a point of diminishing returns unless dancing on the bleeding edge of the fire is your goal.
