I bet you are.

Why is it all RACK supporters who are "confused" by the poll? What a 
coincidence!
There is nothing especially confusing about the poll results. It shows that a 
large number of WG participants think there should be no ownership limits 
whatsoever. It shows how many are willing to "live with" the DAGv4 and Board 
resolution options, and how many are against. It shows that "Free Trade" and 
JN2 have more support than RACK, but that neither has a consensus. 

Those who claim that this information is "confusing" have an obligation to 
explain to us what they mean. Is it "confusing" or is it-"inconvenient" or "not 
what I hoped for" -- please explain in greater detail what your problem is, and 
why it is not useful for the Board and the wider community to have this 
information. What can it harm to know that, e.g., MMA proposed a competition 
authority model with audits and that this proposal gained some support but was 
not that popular; that the Free Trade proposal which opposes all ownership 
limits was the top-polling proposal; that JN2 and RACK proponents had different 
"live with" fallbacks?
