Anyone have a link to Harper's suggestion where he goes into it?

An alternate approach I was laying out involved using a scoring system for
game conditions, like SETS.  This system could be used as a secondary
system for tie-breaking purposes, if need be.

My take is that just about ANY changes, no matter how minor and deviating
from the way it is now, is going to be argued against.  It stands a chance
of being buried with the reason, 'Well, I don't think this issue is THE
problem.'  The end result is that if it could be part of the answer, it
gets buried.  If something faces multiple issues, it is possible that
nothing changes or is fixed, because one issue alone doesn't resolve
anything.
