@Amanda_Axolotl Perfectly legit way of going about it if padding the plate isn't enough for you. Don't throw away the base plate though, if you ever want to trade-in or re-sell the older core, that'll be handy to go with it.

@knightcouragee Different layout, same function. I have more robust freedoms than you do in pretty much all of the categories that I actually care about.
@knightcouragee I disagree with both of those assessments.
Historically, your rights are every bit as fragile as ours, and have undergone serious erosion in the past 25 years.
As for floor-crossers turning a minority into a majority: Manchin and Sinema.
