If you feel something is "obvious" then use the report post function.



@Nathanual - when posting information such as this you are required on this forum to post sources for your information, simply saying it comes from "in my head" is not helpful as the information could very well be inaccurate and we have no way of verifying otherwise.

Also use the edit post function in future.
