Yes -- I agree. And let's not spend our lives
worrying
about 100 lines. Maybe 120 lines is a better number,
or perhaps 100 lines +/- some eta.
Or should I just wave my shootout wand and say "it
is fine as is?" So -- "IT IS FINE AS IS."
The only question I have is, should this replace
something, or is it unique and necessary in its own
right? And why?
The answer will be used in the 'about' write-up.
