Point taken; should I have said 'policy of having many or most Mormon men and some women go far away'? I could be wrong, but I don't think that materially weakens the 'Stockholm syndrome effect', as it were, the possible utility of making everyone serve in the military.

(And it may be a social expectation but I wonder how important the distinction between expectation and policy/law is; when I was a Catholic, we were told clearly that confirmation was optional - yet not one of us felt that we had the genuine option to not be confirmed, and so all of us were.)
