I don't think the number of blocks was actually great enough to support culling as a method of population reduction. However if you specify culling the Tall Poppies(O young duckie, O verne, O fayeroe, O zennie, O Lou, O Alex O twinnie O manic) on a qualitative basis I think that is a very apt suggestion. And if the tall poppies were culled the GroundGrowing *snortflowers* were always protected. Sounds like it fits the data. Welcome to Science.
Of course that leaves Bob's motives to speculation......
