You would lose that bet, Jay. This issue has been debated for a couple
of years on this and other reflectors, and WITHOUT EXCEPTION, the SO2R
guys want their score listings COMBINED with the SO1R guys. 

Make of that what you will, but I compare it to the playground bully
who has acquired a pair of brass knuckles but still thinks it is fair
to fight those who do not have such equipment. 

To me, it's like high power vs low power: You can choose either one,
have a good time and compete against those similarly equipped. IMO,
SO2R gives a similar advantage and therefore should be classed
similarly.
