You shouldn't. That is exactly why 9.8 disappointed me. They bit off more than they could chew, much less digest, so by the time we got to 9.8 they weren't able to explain everything sufficiently and opted for the simplistic route. Up to that point, it was all working very nicely for me. I know we all have very strong feelings about whether the Lucas/John plotline worked or not so I don't want to get back into that. (Please!) I was willing to swallow it, holes and all, but, to whip the dead horse of metaphor, the mouthful was too big.
