What does this mean exactly?  I don't recall seeing/hearing anything
previous to suggest that "lower numbers" are handled any differently
than "higher numbers" in the corpus.  This also goes against anything
previous documented (albeit by all by John Hanna).

So - file naming by number is no longer a random naming process - and
there is preferential treatment between lower and higher numbered
files?  What is the delimiting factor that differentiates low from
high?  I thought that the Files Distribution feature (as previously
discussed) was supposed to control how "randomly" files were saved -
not named.
