[blml] Réf. : Re: opening lead vs 3N

[Alain Gottcheiner]

-------Message original-------
 
 
Nigel : Alain argues the official position well but I fear that his attitude
further re-enforces law-breaking and reduces the incentive to report
infractions.
 
 
AG : you have to remember that part of the so-called official position is
that people don't cheat. They err.
 
The Law (no, not bridge laws) says that punishment is to be used against
deliberate offences, while redress (in Belgium, this is L1768 IIRC ; there
is also Lex Aquilia) is used against damage from involuntary actions. 
 
This means that using overcompensation (as you intend) is saying to the OS :
"you're cheats".
I don't like your position at all.
 
Regards
 
  Alain
