I don’t agree with this. That was how our elite 1st line operated - it was not how our depth operated behind that first line. Now, as Sutter has said countless times, we don’t have that elite 1st line anymore because 2/3rds of it bailed on the organization. So now we have 4 lines playing this way, rather than just 3.
