So you're disagreeing with the author of this system. Of course you
know best, you know the code behind it. I have only one word for
that kind of attitude: idiotic.

Lots of people use it without issue. People even send patches to the

You aren't listening to me, so it's pointless discussing this further.
You have a bee in your bonet and you want to make it a huge issue
rather than work constructively. Sorry but no, I'm not going to continue
this confrontational exchange.

You clearly don't want to understand anything.
