I mean, they have the head coder on the mods list, they could probably get a special database report just for them if they asked very nicely. (And they're probably going to have to totally redo the exchange code if they ever get moving on block lists; better noms handling would likely be on the list, because you'd need to be able to block people from nomming in your exchange.)

But yes, I don't think they would do that as their first move. They would change the required numbers again first. And it's not that bad yet, but it's way up compared to last year, so it could get that bad in a couple more.
