I'm glad you agree. If you can find a way to address that point, I
can live with the rest of it. I don't think it's dumb to be concerned
about features that increase the cost of adding more features. But
what really concerns me is that that code won't be well-tested, and if
there are cases missing or somebody forgets to do it altogether, it's
very likely that we won't notice. That seems like a huge problem from
where I sit.
