It seems to me, off hand, that His Grace and Your Excellency have jumped 
to the conclusion that there is nothing substantive to be added to the 
debate, before the debate has begun.  I can't promise that we will be 
talking about anything new, except my proposal for three principalities, 
but then I'm not the only person involved in this debate.  I certainly 
hope we don't get vociferous again, and I am certainly trying to avoid 
raising the heat in this discussion, but it does not mean I intend to stop.

As you point out, the principalities issue has been raised roughly every 
two years, yet Atlantia has no principalities.  So obviously, if we want 
to establish principalities, we have to debate the issue more often then 
once every two years.
