I didn't mean to imply that, although I do recognise that I speak with some authority, even if I have none.

My point was simply that I can not agree with that compromise, even if I honestly think that it makes some sense, simply because I do not believe that the gears of the inclusion debates are currently turning as they should.

Really, what we should do is try to discover from scratch in this debate what qualities a video game needs to have to be valid, and in doing so I agree that it's important to throw away any pre-existing ideas about what games are and aren't valid (but mainly the ones that are). That way we can agree here and now the difference between (say) The Adventure Games and something closer to Legacy.
