Obviously we're going to want to increase the endorsement cap significantly, if not remove it entirely, but I'd like to see lower application requirements at this point in time as the existing requirements mean that it will be a very long time before anyone else will meet them.

I didn't conflate them Glen, I'm well aware of what the difference is. But the currently proposed membership requirements are sufficiently onerous that, considering the vast difference between the influence level they require and the influence level anyone can currently legally attain, it would be a very long time until anyone would qualify under them. As such I'd like to see lower requirements, at least initially.

I think both topics are relevant as part of a broader discussion on regional security, as well as being linked.
