I still don't see the big issue with 999 other than when folks from 999 pop into pull a tag....isn't that the point?
Maybe they need to charge more to increase priority...
The tags are handed out each year regardless, 999 does not increase wait. In many cases it allows lower P an opportunity. I am p11 and applying in a p9 needed zone, I didn't want the tag the past two years due to commitments and winter kill.....but I didn't hold back others from pulling a tag....and I waited my turn.
