  I don't see where Ed is making that assumption at all David.  But
I see that you believe that he is.  Which seems very telling in a way...

  No one is, including Ed here, suggesting that there be no constraints.
In fact the contrary.  It is a matter of WHAT constraints and how they
are determined.

  Unfortunately, again David you fail to understand Ed's perspective.
He nor anyone that I know of has or is suggesting "engineering conflicts"
as a vehicle of any sort as means of protracting a solution or even to
a solution.  Why would you or anyone assume this?  WHere did you
get this idea?  Certainly not from anything Ed has posted on this
and other threads.  So I would submit that, yes, you are entirely to cynical
to this degree anyway.  And as Einstein once said, "Cynics never accomplish
much."  I hold with that statement.
