You get even more information by putting the year first, yet you don't

@grumbel45 Wouldn't an easy solution to the interlaced video problem (e.g., displaying a 50 fields per second interlaced video digitally) be to show it at 50 frames per second, but have the odd-numbered frames only show the odd-numbered lines and the even-numbered frames only show the even-numbered lines (i.e., just having your computer simply doing what your TV screen would do)?

Why would it be a bad idea to shoot new video as interlaced if it halves the bandwidth?

@nknguyen2877 Why would not deinterlacing the video and instead showing it in the way that it was "meant" to be displayed, as suggested here, be dreadfully annoying to watch?

@Crlarl Why can't compression handle it?

@Crlarl Why? Isn't the "really high" information transfer rate the very problem that interlaced video tries to solve?!

@dragonrider7225 To save yet another byte whilst also increasing he range, couldn't they just store the year as a binary number from 0 to 255, thereby allowing everything to work until 2155?

@dantenotavailable What about only having General A attack if an acknowledgement was received?

@Nadia1989 Surely you don't need a computer to operate on a miscarriage?!
