Yes. It just goes to alternative approaches, Speaker. This is a ruling of Speaker Smith, who, as you know, like you, tried to be very balanced and fair on these things. Just because you're asked about alternative approaches does not mean that you can embark on a character assessment. You're going to need to actually find an alternative policy approach that you can refer to that's relevant to the question that has been asked. I point you to that from Speaker Smith, Speaker.
