Default RE: Boone and Crockett OR BTR ..which is more fair?

I know that many don't like the usual nitpicking for symetry by B&C but I'm mainly only that interested in gross score so I can personally get a feel for the bucks true frame size. It seems that that is the best way to get an accurate feel for the quality and size of the animal that's being talked about. While I feel that BTR means well, I do NOT agree with their not measuring "air". I'm sorry but in my opinion spread is a BIG part of ANY racks visual impressiveness! A buck with a 15 1/2 inside spread doesn't even resemble the same animal with say a 24" inside with the same tine lenghts. Just not a good system in my opinion.
