It really is semantics, but I think Dan and Paul are right. This is all that
templates are, but people don't see that because it is not packaged/labelled

tenure itself."

Earl Russell [son of Bertrand Russell], 1988, in a maiden speech opposing
the Education Reform Bill which was to deprive British academics of
tenure and to allow them to be dismissed without warning merely for "good
cause"- just like any other British employees. Hansard, House of Lords
