I've spent the last 2 years in East Africa and the last thing this place needs is another predator gaining back ground. This sounds like a great idea until you find yourself after sunset in an area where electric is scare - which means basically everywhere. I got hunted by street dogs in Bulgaria, multiple times, that shit will make you go to a gun shop and I'd rather get assaulted by another boda robber than facing those things.
I feel like a lot of people discussing here have no clue what they're talking about, they just have an opinion - which, combining both, most likely means it's an opinion they did not form themselves.

The rules for index inclusion absolutely make sense in many ways.

I doubt your sentiment. Index funds are for people who don't want to know about the details and put the work in. They go by general recommendations.

I think respecting the cutting depth per rotation would give better clues and would make the the assumption actually comparable to "what they did" back then
That's just stupid. What's killing rent is inheritance.

I don't enjoy how the paper is blaming the writer and is not accounting for their obvious lack of facts checking because of their liking of "a good story". It's definitely a discussion worth from both sides, punching down on a pressured human being lacks good taste.

Used to be a fan of threema until they were subjected to. The revised Swiss Federal Act on the Surveillance of Postal and Telecommunications Traffic in or around 2016.

Backdoors introduced by law, as far as I've gotten into it. I no longer can recommend it.
