Stipulating for the moment that this is true, I don't really see how you
get from there to "and this person needs to be in charge of the process".
To give an example that I think I also gave on the most recent virtual

in the legal world, and that's not us, but address that problem by engaging
a lawyer and asking their opinion. Why doesn't that work here?
