You see, the beautiful thing about language (spoken or typed) is the context within it. When someone asks, "Do we need it?", that person is contextually asking, "Is this really helpful?". VGC pushing a games sales site is pretty helpful in everyones mind here, it's in the name of course. But to make the comparison between your break down system and VGC is kind of a 'red herring', don't you think?

I personally don't think the 1-25, 26-50, etc. chart is helpful but I'm not saying it's a bad idea either. Maybe other people find it useful. I just wanted to voice my concern of people missing the context of what others are saying, whether it be on purpose or accidental. Sorry if I come off rude.

I don't think you come off as rude, but to contextualize something freely given (the proverbial gift horse) as a matter of necessity most certainly comes off as such. I brought in the VGC analogy to highlight the absurdity of the question and its truly unsolicited nature, as everything herein comes down to a matter of choice.

Fair enough. I wasn't stating necessity so much as pointing out the difference between our assumed interpretation of Swordfishes contextual foreground. It would seem as though Swordfish used the term 'need' in place of 'usefulness', but I can see how the question doesn't need asking.
