You didn't dream it up. Hatching at higher altitude does require different techniques, and some people do remove bloom, heck, some actually sand the shell.

Wow! Sand it to the let the gasses exchange i imagine

I don't care where anyone lives. Hatching is a process and can be as easy or as hard as person makes it. First is understanding the process the eggs go through during incubation and what needs to happen inorder to successfully hatch them.

Studdying hatching is a great practice

Looks to me the consensus from that info @casportpony posted how you hatch in high altitude does make a difference in how you incubate

I understand this although I personally just turn on my incubator and watch my eggs. Ambient humidity and incubation humidity will need to be monitored. The first 10 days I just turn eggs and then begin to monitor them after that.
