They're drafting up a new B.S. when in over two years we still do not appear 
to have a consensus on how the current one is supposed to work, and the 
current one seems perfectly straightforward to me...

But
when the RPA is set on the TCP, it stays where it is.  It  cannot be modified
to accommodate a proposed layout.  If the layout  encroaches the RPA, the
layout must accommodate the RPA, not the other way  around.

Even if you've got Richard Nicholsons hypothetical tree in a central  
reservation, where two of the RPA boundaries are set in concrete you can 
still  
jiggle the other two limits 20% either way. Notwithstanding it's probably an 
R  of 
course.
