More precisely, the PW Staff say that they have "always" been asking
that only land agents show up on Friday. I'd think I'd have heard a whiff
of this before now, so I wonder just how they have been "asking". Telepathy
is plainly unreliable. They also overlook merchants planning to begin setup
as soon after 0900 as they can get through the gate, being not subject to
the Land Regulations, but rather the Merchant Office regulations.

It's not an absurd request, but they do have to actually make it known
clearly and widely so that people can learn of it. I don't dismiss the concern
that is behind this.
