With out getting into the weeds, your not messing with anything QIN. The data & information is fully functional in the NT side but disabled QIN. What this does is not to alter QIN anything but rather NOT Allow anyone to look at the harvestable fish and enter POTENTIAL QIN harvest by week to allow the NT side ( commercial particularly ) to develop multiple NT options around potential QIN seasons. The QIN in the end will present their desired season based upon what they view is appropriate. Using the model to look at potential QIN & NT seasons infringes on nobody's rights. It is a tool period.
