My point is, it doesn't matter what convinces anyone but the
Commissioner and the Tribunal. I suspect that the Tribunal isn't going
to be interested in assumptions, so why should the Commissioner spend
time on complaints made on assumptions?
A complaint which isn't really viable is a waste of time - should public
money be spent fending off complaints that can't really be used for
anything constructive? Many of us will respond positively to advice and
assistance from the IC, but some won't - and the persistant phone
marketer probably won't care unless he is made to. If the IC is going to
spend time on the people for whom advice won't work, he'll have to
enforce, and complaints that are no good as enforcement material might
well be a waste of time.
Of course, there's nothing the IC can do about a timeshare man in
Florida, so it doesn't really matter what he's selling.

You have to make the assumption that the man in Florida is about to sell
you a timeshare, rather than enquire about the weather. But as that's
been correct 100% of the times so far, you'd have a hard time convincing
me of "reasonable doubt".
