Yep, we've definitely seen the old tar and feathers come out when it comes to "faux" Zoners. You're not the only one who seems to hold us to "higher standards".
But, it does approach a "double standard" at times, as mentioned.
I'm half tempted to set up a "weigh station" in Baffin; where ships would be "weighed" for their ID, tag, and RP "political correctness". If found lacking, there would be a "toll" levied. Those within specs would be allowed free passage. Those found out of spec would find their little shortcut unavailable until they corrected the discrepancies.
Maybe that would tend to balance the ol' Chao a bit.
