We say, well if you take this hit out of the game you pretty much take all hitting out of the game. You (general you) disagree. Ok, so then it's asked what rules you would change to make these hits not happen but still have hitting in the game, but you don't know.
It's hard to discuss what you think the idea situation would be when you don't even know yourself.

Right now I'm interested in provoking the discussion so collectively we can start to figure out what it would look like. I don't pretend to have all the answers. Sometimes its OK to raise questions.
I do think though that one approach is to distinguish the concept of hitting from the concept of checking.
Perhaps indeed hitting needs to go away completely. Hitting is just one type of checking.
