AC does not by default imply ALSO BGN. Its a difference in radios not
protocol. Pretty much everything supports B as it's the oldest and
slowest and usually a fallback mode. GN is not always found on AC
devices. Most high-end will do everything. The cheap bottom end won't.

Every time you stop a school, you will have to build a jail. What you
gain at one end you lose at the other. It's like feeding a dog on his
own tail. It won't fatten the dog.
