They've been talking about this for a year now, when they realized the core concept completely failed at certain levels (which was entirely predictable, I might add). In person I've heard "we don't how we're going to fix this", and I believe it was mentioned at the convention as well, but I don't remember for certain.
So, they'll keep patching on "fixes" every time it fails. And because it is a fundamentally flawed process, it will keep failing, and the process will become a bloated mess that no one understands how it got to be so bad. Did anyone notice the "exceptions" mentioned in the minutes? 2 CPC's had different rules applied to them than the rest of the FAA. Constantly changing criteria, and not even applied uniformly.
