    @omooex

    Yeah, I get that's the argument. I just don't think it makes any sense. What's the point of saying that you're party to the conventions whether the other party is or not, then saying that you're not if the other party isn't? I just don't think the second sentence can be read that way, or the entire paragraph doesn't really make sense.

    So it seems to me.
