That's my point exactly Joe. A fuse in the grid is exactly
the opposite of what common sense and technically solid
logic would dictate in any design. Worse yet, one person
advocates removing reliable fast electronic protection
circuits and replacing them with a resistor that, when it
opens, floats the grid!
