Very true but how is that any different in the regular build season? This is exactly my point. What is the purpose of 1 or 2 or 3 or whatever 5 hour or 10 hour or whatever fix-it windows. Teams with limited resources (fewer members, only hand tools, etc) are placed at a disadvantage to those with more resources (100 team membersm zillion dollar CNC shops, etc.). By FIRST limiting the fix-it windows by clock time it in no way levels the field. At least with man hours you can't just have more people working in the time period to get more done.
