Which evolved by arguing about rules, because landowners had the reasonable and probably correct expectation that their property rights extended upwards to infinity.

It's trivial that changing the rule to make it narrower changes the outcome. But then people won't agree about whether the change should be made. How annoying a vehicle is isn't determined by its method of propulsion.
- ronald_raygun 3y agoThis is why the tank example is the most interesting one. Because clearly by any standard it is a vehicle in the park, but clearly its function in the park is completely out of scope of what the rule is trying to achieve.
