[CANUFNET] Private Tree Protection

[ConsultingArborist]

Agreed. Previous editions seemed to mostly just fine-tune earlier editions.
The 10th is more of a wholesale rewrite.

My 2 cents: just because someone has come up with a new approach to
calculating Pi, that doesn't make all the other ways wrong. You still get
Pi. It sounds like that's basically what the 3rd summary statement, quoted
in Michael's message, is saying.
