Nobody has said *must*.  The enlightened interface was designed after
we had all the trouble with the CRB one outlined in the previous email
thread, so that's what this pull request has.  However, this being open
source nothing prevents you submitting a pull request for a functioning
CRB interface if that's what you want.
