I am blunt too.
Anybody keeping bees should want a supersedure Queen over a swarm Queen,
with a supersedure Queen half the workers do not want to leave, and the
colony re-queens itself naturally. I guess only beekeepers who really want
to keep their own bees would think this way. Give me a supersedure queen any
day over a swarm queen. Anyone who would not want a supersedure queen over a
swarm queen must be some kind of a nut.
