HELP! Give us your opinion on the balance of beacon compactness?

If a beacon does have prohibited compactness on Live then the plotting restrictions are lifted to give you free control to correct the beacon. This is because we found that some shapes were extremely difficult to correct if we only allowed changes that improved compactness. So we concluded it was best to give players freedom to correct the beacon at the temporary cost of their prestige.

Not sure if this quoted right, but there was this that he did say, which suggests we can still plot over, and the only negitive is prestige?
