  • Based on similar reactions to legislation I have been interested in locally an attempt to spread a successful goal elsewhere often hamstrings the location where it was first implemented by adding extra requirements.

    For example, if you want to create a new city park with limited funds, you might want to start with some landscaping and then add in other features like water fountains, picnic tables, trees, and whatnot based on feedback over time when funds become available. But if a county or state law supersedes your local approach by requiring all of those things to be planned for and implemented at the same time it might not be possible to even do the landscaping so it can be used for sports.

    I’m not even talking about accessibility features or things like that, just more complicated planning and time restrictions that are aimed at larger communities but implemented universally.

    She could be talking about that kind of thing or blowing smoke, hard to tell since people like to use things that could be valid when they aren’t.

    So one of the biggest leaps they have made in reconstruction over the last few decades is matching similar bone structure that supports soft tissue. It doesn’t work for all soft tissue, but if the beavers tail bones have bumps or other features that hint at supporting extra soft tissue there is a chance.

    All the stuff birds have, like inflatable neck sacks and feathers that move with muscles are examples of things we absolutely wouldn’t get with fossils that are even better than a beaver tail.
