This kind of stuff really is distracting from the business of just getting 
some decent Gemini content written. We should stick to solving problems as 
they arise in reality, rather than focusing on theoretical issues 
which raise a sort of "gotcha" about the existing spec and philosophy, and 
we ought most particularly so to do if we disagree with that philosophy.
