This requirement would effectively make the C_comp value an un-correlated variable,
so If we were doing a monte-carlo simulation it would enter in as another free variable.
To me this change is no different than the current specification and so I can see no
need for the bird (at least, on this point).

Of course, we could come up with a COR_C_comp or some such thing.

I am thinking that we are moving toward a situation where we want more that two variables
and perhaps multiple corners and this whole discussion may be more appropriate aimed at
a major 3.0 type enhancement.
