It just seems to me that an attempt to pacify the R&F on something like this would be better served in the Kool-Aid Edition. I dunno. I can't make heads or tails of anything they do anymore. Their motivation, their reasoning, none of it is adding up. The only thing that would make a modicum of sense at this point is if there is indeed an "apostate" faction that's somehow getting to the Writing Committee and attempting subterfuge via articles like this one while those who are supposedly in control, i.e. the Governing Body, would be too clueless to notice...
It makes me think of something my sharp-as-a-bowling-ball D.O. said back in, I think, 2006... "Very soon things are going to happen in The Organization that are going to make you wonder, What's going on? Have the apostates taken over?"
