This has no effect whatsoever on speculation, because there's no 
difference between "buying more than you really need and transferring 
them under 8.3" and "buying options on more than you really need and 
transferring part of them under 8.3". Just makes the lawyers a little 
extra money.

Support, and would support removing needs justification for 8.3 
transfers entirely.
