The question becomes what happens when we have one person who gets to, let's say, 88% of original firmware, and then one person comes along with 3% to push it across the line. Do we divvy it up by percent? By duration of record held? Or is it winner-take-all? This is not to say it's a bad idea -- quite the opposite -- just that it is not a simple one.
