This might be so, but even if there is only the slightest, maybe even
atomic, possibility, that those claims could be correct (and there is
no way for me to testify that) I take it as my duty to implement the
"Anti-Scrambling"-Affection.
I don't want such players to be left out, as I stated in a previous
post. And before I piss off such a player (who knows how they feel
if they do not get accepted?) I rather do 3 hours of coding.
