So essentially you are agreeing with me; that heuristic-based filters are obsolete. This is evidenced by the fact that you're interested in turning SA into more or less a Bayesian filter.
>From what others have told me, it looks like SA devel is actually going in that direction too - which is good. My only qualm now is that if SA wants to be a Bayesian filter, go ahead and do it and get rid of all the rulesets so they can focus their attention on enhancing the Bayesian.
