Actually, that won't "overcome" anything. It simply ADDS to the problem. (g) I was hunting for something over there the other day and of 16 "hits" 4 appeared to be someone who had gotten into the database by accident because there was no data, no parent, no spouse. Four more had one piece of info each (NOT the same piece, of course). Three of the others had full data, and it differed wildly; the rest seemed to have done a pick'n'choose off the three with full data. Tossing a 17th "hit" in there will only complicate matters, EVEN if it's totally accurate and fully documented. But, even the LDS quit trying to merge GEDCOMs into one lineage-linked database because they faced too many "judgment calls". So we live with an embarrassment of riches.
