But it's worse than "relatively large percent". There's absolutely no
minority constituency that is vocal about wanting this to change.
I'd be perfectly happy to rotate among the same 5 or 6 places all the
time, but my motto is "dare to be dull". Plus I'm not sure how such a
policy would work with sponsorships, because a number of recent sponsors
presumably preferred the meeting to happen in their country for reasons
of national pride or convenience.
That's why I declared myself giving up on this topic.
Sure, one can tilt at a particular windmill for only so long...
