Because the PR aspect is MORE important than the actual action we take.

This is where I tend to believe we will end up, that is, using both.
The PICS/icra tag without the simple and obvious meta tag is too weak, because parents and politicians can't make any sense of the PICS tag.
We need the simple and obvious meta tag for political credibility.
If people want to add the PICS/icra tag too, what could be the harm?
Me? Well, folks, I make X-Rated porn pages, there is no ambiguity there, for me it's a simple ON/OFF proposition. No kids should ever be on my pages, and adults should only be on my pages if they want to see hard pornography.
So, I don't see any need to put the weaker PICS tag (PICS is the standard that the ICRA website uses to generate the code in it's registration process.) on my websites.
But if other people do want to make pages that qualify for the weaker PICS/icra ratings more power to them.
