I agree. Let's see the same happen for Limited Multi-Op.  :-)

What's "unethical" about it?  I can find no Commandment in the Biblical
sense that applies.  "Unethical" usually also implies "immoral", and I
just don't see it.  The contest rules need to SPECIFICALLY ban it, or
it's a valid strategy.  I don't personally LIKE the strategy, and it
sounds like you don't either... but that doesn't change the fact that
it's valid until banned.
