Ah, but even then, I think people are attempting to ring a
'true' quarter: it's just that the definition of 'truth'
that they are applying is different. I imagine that most
quarters of Little Bob Minor include each of the 480
accessible rows at least twice and no more than three times.
I don't imagine that there have been many quarters where
some of the 480 accessible rows were (intentionally)
omitted.
Perhaps people should be allowed to ring a peal containing
eleven 480s of Little Bob Minor? Or ten 480s plus a 200.
