I can see now I probably overextended its capabilities. There I go imagining again.

No problems on any front. My humor can be too discreet even when utilizing emoticons.

In any event, if I can revisit my misconception or misunderstanding of this feature - which obviously we haven't even seen yet, so who knows? - I was under the spell or impression that I could, in effect, under the Add/Delete League option append to my existing league with, perhaps, merging in a heretofore separate league already engaged.
It's one thing to simply treat Add Leagues as an advanced version of the expansion option (which I think qualifies under Cephas' view as an organization in need of players*), but quite another to really
add a league either by new creation and draft- in-game or prior -or inclusion of established organizational bodies. While I agree the end result and methods to get us there still require more information, it appears the ideal is always to have available all options. It's simply become clear to me that what I'd originally envisioned in the Add portion of the Add/Delete may have been erroneous.
*If this process was indeed expansion-oriented, as Add League sounds like it might be, would this Inaugural Draft you're suggesting consist solely of newly created players or would it also include the existing Free Agent pool in the league? I'm starting to see a complex of possible uses with the new feature, all dependent on actual definitions and limitations we're still waiting to have addressed.
Edit: I'd be remiss not to offer my own 'campaign' of sorts regarding inaugurals by referencing this link -
