Relying right now on a 3+ year history from memory (not digging through
archives at this point), I understood the objection to be very similar to
the conversation you're having with Harold right now -- how clean it might
be for a processor vs. how (non) usable and verbose it would be for humans.
For an archeological exercise I may try to dig up public communication on
the topic over the weekend.
