Well, nobody has yet explained what exactly that problem is, or at least I
haven't seen any such explanation. All people have done is assert that
there is a problem; I have absolutely no idea what this problem is.
On the other hand, the people uncomfortable with the restrictions have
explained their point of view at length.

High handed? Somehow I doubt we are actually speaking the same language

It's hard to find a compromise with a position that's never been
explained. Only one of the sides in this dispute is that way.
