I think anyone who uses a speedy tag should have to do
an hour of this.
Might make people realise what the speedy tags really are for.
I think the problem is that, doing their level best in good faith to
deal with the FIREHOSE OF CRAP, they get punch-drunk from repeatedly
being hit over the head with the sum total of human stupidity and
eventually scream "AIEEEE IT'S ALL CRAAAAP KILL IT ALL KILL IT WITH A
STICK!!!"
Which is probably not good.
So A7 needs to be much less grey-area that it appears to be in
practice. This will reduce stress for all.
