There is a bridge magazine in England called Mr Bridge, and the best part of the magazine is the readers' letters. Once in a while people come out of the woodwork with their suggestions for scoring changes. It is pretty clear that these scoring changes address the weakest part of the suggester's game.

This should not be a great concern to BBF people. There are no penalty doubles.

Yes this callous youth, they will never understand why expert standard from the 60's is superior to expert standard from 2012. *sigh*
