Jeff,

You keep missing the point.   Just because you don't think it's a corner
case, while a fascinating bit of information doesn't mean it's important
factor for anyone.   You continue to miss that people have already offered
workable solutions.   Anyway, you've failed to show it has ever been an
important factor in the past or would even be one in the future.   Nothing
has changed.
