Re: Einstein?

I think that the interpretation of the replacement rule should be strict (not harsh), so that it can't be used as an element of strategy. Ultimately, it is the role of the head ref to decide whether a given request meets the definition of the rule and an appropriate decision was made in this case. I could cite several hypothetical examples to demonstrate why I think that a strict interpretation of the rule is best, but at this point the issue is clearly left as it is.
