Follow-up: The most useful thing you learned here that was not the answer you came for Replied, post #17 · Lounge › Off topic · 1 Jul 2026 · 29 likes Lounge question, no agenda: does anyone else keep a physical notebook for this rather than a file?

Enforcement priorities versus written rules — does this still hold? Replied, post #33 · Sourcing › Regulatory · 28 Aug 2025 · 9 likes Where I would push back on the Enforcement priorities consensus is the confidence, not the direction. The direction looks right. The confidence is borrowed.
