How about 7 instead of 4? The 7th could then be
"catastrophicaldisastrous"! Like, not so long
ago, when Emacs crashed on me, with a segfault
C error message (if that is a proper, proper as
in descriptive, description of what was
outputted), when Emacs crashed on me simply
because I didn't have (package-initialize)
first in my ~/.emacs , but instead in a file
that was loaded later, a file that related to
[M]ELPA packages! [1]

When I brought the crash situation up, it
received limited attention save from one
person, while another person closed the case by
saying the issue is perhaps already solved, in
Emacs 26!

But in retrospect, I'm happy to put that whole
debacle on myself. I should have filed it
a bug, with the correct pseudo-header up front!

    Yeah, I should rename that file...
