Sorry, but I *don't* agree. Put cynically (and I know that the people proposing this aren't being cynical), this says: The people in the business right now are introducing a rule that places new entrants at a disadvantage. This will prevent them from competing on an equal footing. This is called a "cartel" in most places, and is illegal in several countries (including the UK and, I believe, all of the EU) unless it can be specifically justified. -- Clive D.W.
