frozen, I wanted to comment here on what I have said.

I am not trying to argue that designers don't play their variants, just am saying that proposed ideas need to be played before a larger audience to see how well they work.  Again, more playing by larger numbers, and less merely posting ideas.  To this end, I suggest games be broken down to variant elements and people try to 'roll their own'.  Maybe in this, the evolutionary path of chess can not be blocked.
