    So you are in effect saying that you preemptive attack was baseless and
    without any technical justification (the HR approach was so wrong that's
    not even worth disscussing).  Refusing to provide a technical
    justification after so many requests is quite telling.  Thank you.

It was entirely reasonable for Eli object to a change that looked like
it would make things more difficult for him -- he did not have to try
to actually do the work before he could object to this.

The fact that he ultimately went along with the change, rather than
undoing it, argues that removing the no-MULTI_KBOARD code was a good
change.  But it doesn't change the conclusion that you should have
asked.
