> If you decide to go off "merit" - well, there are some people who were born on 2nd base and when they advance to third the claim they hit a triple. Meanwhile there's other people who weren't born anywhere close to the field, had to get the equipment to play, learn the rules of the game, and worked their butts off to hit a double. Which of these two people have shown more "merit"? Only problems - is "merit" an indicator of knowing to do the job better? - are you able to evaluate "merit" - specifically whether a person started from second base or not?
