Then I expect that we should be CAREFUL in doing so,
such that we integrate these ancillary issues that our
changes impact.
While it always seems to me that Peter's proposals are
sweeping in nature, e generally covers the bases by
considering all of the existing rules that will be impacted
by a change or group of changes that e is proposing.
Rashness is to be discouraged, as it can lead to many
unforeseen results.
If all 3 rules regarding stats (10-2, 10-4 and 10-7) are
changed by a change in an initial value, they should all
be covered with the change (since they all indirectly 
set the values for Joining Players by stating an initial
value). This goes to being careful what you propose;
it might come back and bite you on the anterior.
