I really like the analysis you've provided with this kind of list, because it's the sort that if I were to see it, my eyes would just slide on by, and my brain would see only "some Rebel ships", but on second glance with some explanation of how things work, it makes some sense.
Haha, you'd be surprised at how many people at GenCon had the same initial thought on the list. Some maintained it, but others ended up seeing its merit. Jonathan Groves was PO'd that he lost, twice, to it, and then held it in great admiration after that.
