Default RE: Weight Requirements

I thought we're flying pattern, not handicap golfing or bracket racing or "asking for lengths" ala Pinks. Everybody knows the rules coming in and has the opportunity to choose powerplants and airframes accordingly. If people want to fly electric or gasoline or steam... that's great. But don't ask for special treatment because your steam engine can't make weight. People have the choice to fly $5000 professionally built composite models or $1000 home built balsa ones. Is somebody going to start lobbying for dollar limits on the planes, to keep things "equal" ?
