There seems to be alot of semantics flowing around, POTN didn't flop as many thought he would, nor did he run like a triple crown champion as others might want us to believe. The truth as always lies somewhere in between.

Depends on your definitions and assumptions.
1) If you assume that QR and IWR would've finished ahead of PON
had they run, then
2) it would come down to your definition of what tossing PON out of the
exotics would mean
So it does come down to semantics and assumptions
but, all it all, the rigorous SPIN by the PON detractors (best defense is a good offense) kind of points to their losing this one.
Why anyone would think that PON is
a) exceptionally good
or
b) a plug
is beyond me.
