Unless it’s a JCBA, which the XJT MEC chose not to pursue. Why, I don’t know, but as you can imagine some people are saying they did this just to keep ASA out of it.
Now, I don’t claim to know the real reason nor do I really care much about voting on it. Just trying to explain where some people are coming from. I’m more of the mindset that keeping it simple (what XJT’s MEC has pursued) is a safer bet as far as avoiding entanglements.
