There's a fruity company which for long time tried to be backward compatible (a tiny one still holds on to this). Once they made an X and threw away all those burdens. And still they do. Guess why they are so successful. 'Death is very likely the single best invention of life'

P.S. What a coincidence. My 1111th post (under this account)

There's nothing worse than an untested assumption!

My strong suspicion is that becuase so much is so self inconsistent, you can't create add-ins that are self consistent.

To echo your point:

"A _foolish_ consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, adored by little statesmen and philosophers and divines." (my emphasis added) - Ralph Waldo Emerson

And yes, it is merely a coincidence...
