I agree that there are many classes of use to which this doesn't apply. And if it was truly intended - and applied - only to covering Rev support costs in large companies it may well be appropriate (thought there are other ways to solve that particular problem). And if that was all it was, I could also pass it off as having no relevance to me, because I am not in that situation. However, in both the formulations we have seen so far it appears that the net has been cast considerably wider, and as far as I can see in the current writing it looks a lot like it could affect me, and in very unclear ways. So I do rather urgently want clarification. Kevin, please can you answer some questions?
