- There was no reason to the steal code to perform such a simple task.

Either way, ED did the right thing and exposed A-10C's head control axes for assignment (which I think is all that is needed). Whether they did for BS or not, I can't remember.

If you disagree with my assessment of the likelihood of ED using NP software without permission, please explain why.
