Note that I as a member of this group am not screaming for this. Quite the 
opposite, in fact.

Again, I as a member of this group do not agree with the opinion stated above.

The reason is that I do not believe that the concept "the Master List for 
all Roots" can exist without a corresponding governing body.
No obvious governing body has been identified, either here on the list or 
elsewhere; therefore I do not believe that the Master List for all Roots 
currently exists, and it is impossible to create duplicate entries in a 
list that does not exist.

Be careful - you have this opinion, and many agree with you. However, I 
(and several others) do not.
