Extol's "Synergy" album shouldn't be in The Pit

Extol's 2003 "Synergy" album certainly contains an obvious technical thrash metal influence as well as a few songs that have a rightful claim to that subgenre as a primary tag however each of those songs is clearly grounded in progressive metal as well & the rest of the material is far too expansive & adventurous to be covered by thrash metal. There's really not enough thrash in tracks like "Grace For Succession", "Psychopath", "Blood Red Cover", "26 Miles From Marathon" & "Aperture" to justify it as far as I'm concerned. With that in mind, I'd like to see "Synergy" removed form The Pit & the Thrash Metal genre while maintaining its position solely in The Infinite under Progressive Metal.
