I believe that's *exactly* what it would take to satisfy a number of people.
Lessee.... the slowest I run in bad air is 'x' under the index... "I would be fine with an 'x'+.10 reduction in the indexes."
As I said before, if all the heroes want the indexes chopped, why go halfway? Cut them 1.40 seconds. Aww... can't run the index? "Mebbe you need to work harder." Yes, that's sarcastic. It's all a bunch of BS. The country club is just annoyed that someone is playing on "their" course that they don't want there. They're mad at the slow guys because they don't spend enough money to be in the clique, and they're mad at the Cobra Jets who have blown in and taken candy from a baby, and they're mad at the "Touring Pro Sportsman" because he's worked on his driving as hard as others work on their car. Protect your agenda at all costs. No, not all of this applies to everyone, but there are apparently plenty whom it does cover.
FYI, I got started in Stock as an index-runner, and worked my way up. I've since set National Records, won Class, been #1 Qualifier, run more than -1.000 under, been Div Champ and World Champ. ...yet somehow I can remember where I came from and maintain a wide perspective on the sport. I've even helped others get into the sport or improve their program.
Maybe we should start looking at the big picture.
