Hi Lu,

just to be clear on this - since your question was a hypothetical one about 
something that might have been policy at some point (but certainly not current 
policy), your question wasn't strictly a policy question, and could be very 
well seen as speculative. Given the subject of your question, I can fully 
understand why people have reservations about this discussion.

Kind regards

Remco
