Respectfully, RomaC, I've presented a long list of sources, as requested by others here. The vast majority of them don't use any qualifications. After I presented these sources, all dissenters pretty much stopped discussing this issue, not to mention presenting any alternate sources. Now, if you have other sources, no one is stopping you from presenting them, but if you don't, it appear the matter is closed, even if personally you prefer it to be another way (personally, I oppose the footnote, more so after seeing the way other sources treat this, but I accept it as a compromise).
