You just can't legislate advantages/disadvantages, so we need to go with the program that gives an advantage to NOBODY... the worse red light system.

Lets throw out all advantages/disadvantages that don't apply to the tree. Now we have a slow car that has a pretty good idea of when the tree will come down, and a fast car who has to guesstimate when its going to start coming down. If your a blinder racer, its a hell of alot more consistant when your leaving first and have a pretty good idea of when that bulb will light. Go under the blinder when your spotting someone1 sec here, 2.5 there and keeping focus is a little bit harder. In my opinion, major advantage for the slower car. Balance that out with the first to red light rule and its even in my opinion. Not yours, but obviously your in the minority.
