All of these changes arguably had their genesis here on this forum, so it can't be said that these discussions "rarely" lead to changes in the hobby. Sorry if that upsets rookie card collectors, but I prefer scholarship and accuracy, and I would hope most feel the same.
Was a consensus ever reached that all Leafs were issued in 1949, I can't remember.
