and pandering to the 98% is a problem, because they don't have the best interests of preservation at heart so really need their hands forced if they're going to be helpful to the cause rather than a hindrance.

projects like this, and RA give them an easy way to not be helpful to the cause at all, and when you're talking about such a large %, that's dangerous, so I find the project entirely irresponsible.
