That is because the subject is not one that it is appropriate to have
a document on.

Alternative roots are outside our scope.  They have no relevance as

You just lost me Danny.

Anyone who claims questions of process are more important than action,
is someone who is seeing that their own view points and agenda are not
getting advanced enough.

To you, it is more important that there be action, not that the action
be appropriate or right.
