The last few messages in this thread show all the alarming indications
of a discussion that is about to become another futile bikeshedding,
whereby each participant wants to say the last word, and which then
escalates into unkind discussion where people's feelings get hurt.

So I urge people to please stop this needless go-around before it's
too late.  I assure you that nothing you can say in this manner can
possibly affect the decision, whatever it will be.
