but you missed the word may. They do not yet know the extent of the error. It is quite likely the extent of the error would pale in comparison to fishing at three times the replacement rate. Of course those with an economic incentive are quick to want to throw out all relevant regulations over any potential error in the data. Hmm sounds familiar. The fact that the scientists were self correcting also gets overlooked in your post.

I recommend waiting for the corrected data then suing the crap out of the government if short term damages were inflicted without any long term benefit.
