The reason why I want to get rid of the listed variants is decluttering - clearing out variants that I feel lower the reputation of my contributions overall. They might be part of a personal history but they are not a very interesting or edifying part of it. Grades in internal exams at secondary school are part of people's personal history, but who knows or cares a decade later what anyone's such grades were, however great their later achievements?

The Trebuqi page mentions, and always will, that there were precursors to that game and might even give their names, but I see no need to include the rules of the older games. Most of the rest do not resemble any later or better variant, because they were never even suited to leading to such games.
