    As opposed to the butthurt people that didn't get to enter a team of their choice because they have to pander to some veteran?

    I think there is some kind of misunderstanding and im not really sure how it got started. Everyone is welcome to join and they can join any team they like ! They can even start a team. This is about having fun and getting everyone involved nothing more !

    That is not always how it works. Also, there is a difference between De Jure Equality and Equality as a concept.

    From my point of view, the inequality caused by a draft is institutionalized inequality versus the inequality from the current system which is inequality as a result of someone being a dick. The latter is much easier to regulate than the former. So, certainly, it does create a system of "de jure equality," in that things are supposed to be equal because we say they should be, but creating a form of "true equality" via a draft system seems equally synthetic to me and ultimately has more negative externalities than the current laissez faire system.

    I'm trying my best to manufacture the highest possible amount of net happiness, so the right choice seems obvious to me.

    He's told us not to blow it 'cause he knows it's all worthwhile.
