We could just offer one of the other existing discounted tickets like student or community contributor?

You'll recall this has come up in conversation several times, but we haven't made any moves on this... probably because if we opened that up, it would add some administrative burden, which we're carefully balancing with our ability to manage.

But there may be other views here.
