I think that's a worthy goal, but at the risk of inflating

my input, so to speak, I'll throw in another two cents.

I think being more exact/precise in the opening salvo of bringing up this topic, would eliminate some of the smoke that clouds or obscures the issue for some people, and a lot of the noise and arguing over silly side issues rather than focusing on the relevant ones.

We might wish that such would not be necessary, but the reality is that such distractions are very likely, if not inevitable if we continue on the current path. Or at least it seems so to me given the interactions that I have seen in the past.

Just my opinion, of course, and others may see things differently.
