But that is assuming you've bought the traffic (or otherwise obtained "ownership", like having it given to you for free, traded something of value for it, etc. In the case of someone consigning you the traffic (as is usually the case in what we're talking here), it's not so clear. When someone is "running their traffic thru your site", and you've made some arrangements with them to split revenue derived from that traffic, or give them a fixed amount if their traffic joins your site, I'm not sure at all that you can call it "your traffic".

Absolutely. It's just that the agreement is that their cut is zero. Same with the free traffic from Greenguy or anyone else who sends you traffic for free. but when someone sends you traffic and expects a percentage of what's earned off of that traffic, it's a different story.
Let's go back to yahoo/google, etc.: you pay them for either adwords or clicks*, they send you traffic, that's the end of it. But if a search engine made a deal with you that you would send them a certain percentage of $ made from their traffic, then anything you do which taks that traffic to earn $ which don't get shared, is going around the deal you made.
* or not at all, in the simple case of SEO hits.

Send your traffic where it makes you the most money and shut up already.
That's that.

The biller and cascade worked, and worked better than I anticipated. When I looked at the stats, the damned thing was smart enough to pick up the cookie I had on that machine and browser from an affiliate link test I was doing days earlier and credited that sale to that affiliate code.
When another affiliate refers a surfer does the cookie change? I hope so because I'd hate to think I was sending someone that already had a cookie set and I didn't get credit if they signed up

Your referral places a cookie to credit you, and previous cookies are no longer valid.
Well that's how it's meant to work, but I heard a horror story once that going from the join page to the credit card page on a program destroyed your ref codes and cookies and replaced them with the programs <_<
