Saying "sure, take it away" can be easily based on the hope that in the end people won't bother, or won't have the time to do so, or whatever other reasons may pop up into existence. If you don't like how the system works - be constructive, propose a better one. I also don't, and I've been on the receiving side of such treatment, from that very FS if I'm not mistaken. But all this act of "righteous judgement taking place"™ is very old and smelly.
But you see this cf deal was only proposed by FS after full waving SS (mostly on the tms) when they had agreed war, and in the process destroying any prospect of said war from ever occurring. If FS had responded to SS's message about a cf prior to engagement, or maybe put forward their own cf offer before waving SS, we would have likely come to an agreement. But thats not how it went, they full waved us twice before they were even willing to discuss cf.
