Re: Abolish the Speaker of the curia
So semantics lead us to wish to lose, the things that we've been given.
Of itself, the rank means nothing. It is not a rank. None consider it so.
Everyone realises it is no more than an honourary title bequathed by tBP and Tomyris. Thus why the complaint?
Semantics? Again, the words themselves. "Speaker of the Curia" I am undoubtably not. However, tBP and Tomyris have seen fit to give me the honour of a rank which is not that; not regarded as that; and will never be that. Again, I put it to you, that there is no issue.
For that reason I accept the honour. For the same reason I will not carry "Speaker of the Curia" in my signature, as doubtless, it would be inappropriate.
