you said it yourself "it even covers why there is no legislation on the six year rule  "

So the case where they filed the legal papers went to court and was found agains Experion then? Because if it wasn't then it is again a VIEW and not a legal ruling
And just because there isn't legislation, doesn't meant to say it is illegal. We used to do fine in the world before the idea that everything needs a law
