Think about it. All the Week 1 teams played under one set of rules. If you remove a rule that hurts teams (or add one that hurts teams), you WILL get the Week 1 teams OR the non-Week 1 teams "screaming" at you that you're unfair, biased, that everyone should play under the same rules, the other group has it easier, etc., etc. And there's a fair chance that half the other group will join in to complain with the complainers.

Do you really want that? Do you think the GDC really wants that?
