Huh, nor I. I guess I hadn't absorbed the implications as thoroughly as I'd

A sound approach. And I find just about everything you write to be clear and
carefully worded to be precise. Maybe it doesn't seem that way because I only
seize upon the rare exceptions.
Anyway, this is definitely one of those troff oddities that can be exploited
in useful ways but is fairly unconventional even to seasoned coders.
