If these "options police" want options expensed using black-scholes, simply vote in some board members that share your pov, its as simple as that!

And how would a few hundred shares owned by an investor stack up against the insiders with hundreds of thousands of shares? You don't honestly believe the average shareholder's vote has a snowball's chance of effecting any meaningful change do you?

Black-Scholes is bogus for expensing the true cost of options, that doesn't mean they shouldn't be expensed, it just means that Black-Scholes is not the solution, but it is much better than claiming there's no value!
