You are welcome. I will not bother you again with explanations of stuff you already claim to know.
NB> What if his way _is_ better?
It isn't. That has been established over a decade ago and it is even documented in fts-5003 why it is not better.
NB> Is this not how proposals and improvements are made as more options
NB> and technology becomes available?
No, just ignoring the established standards and going your own way just because you think it is better is not how improvements are made.
But you already know that of course.

Negative. I know that he does NOT have one.

Everyone here could see that the EC confirmed I have a valid point. No response from Tim.
