Consistency =/= Authoritativeness

They are independent of one another.

As I stated, GW's FAQ's have at times been inconsistent, they are nevertheless authoritative. Both elements are good and to be desired, but they are not the same. One does NOT lead to the other.

If you wish to continue the discussion, I suggest you make a poll about whether players are prepared to take emails as authoritative. Then other users will see by the topic title what is under discussion.
