+1 to that. But, instead of merely deprecating such antics, why don't we push for tentative moves to be banned from tournament bg, or at least from the higher division of a tournament? It doesn't have to be touch move, just that if you move a chequer off of it's point then, if it legally can be played, it must. If you move it to a legal point and release it, then that stands.

As long as we take molly coddling in our game to this ridiculous degree, then we can never lay claim to ours being a proper mind sport. It is also ridiculous that though (probably rightly) we ban written calculations from our game, we are nonetheless allowed to make tentative plays. I would strongly suggest that, issues created by the latter, are far more significant than would likely be so with the former. Both or neither should be banned.
