I agree; that's why we've scouted collaboratively before. Not only does it share data that would be hard for smaller, more challenged teams to get, but it also develops great inter-team relationships.

However, not all teams share that view, and that's perfectly fine.

I think that's a topic that deserves more discussion. It seems we have three platforms that have been brought up, and if a unified system is to be achieved, we should discuss how that's implemented.
