IMHO, he didn't confuse the issue at all.
Are you serious?

Rut posted, asking what is the "what is the 'lack of action' mechanic". Bearfanmike responded to Rut's quiery by basically saying that the "lack of action" mechanic is the same as the "not being closely guarded". Now, maybe somewhere in the wonderful world of IAABO , you might find somebody that might agree with that statement, but I can't think of any other knowledgeable official anywhere that would.

Not being closely guarded has absolutely NOTHING to do with a lack of action. Are you saying otherwise, Skippy?

Yes, it's a minor point and not worth arguing about, but I also think that people should know the difference between the two.
