I dismissed a flawed analogy, based on wrong technical assumptions. It is not 
an opinion point, but rather the rebuttal of an out-of-topic flambait.

Tons ? Name them, then, and we'll have something to debate.

Just as there is with *each* code change. Are you suggesting that we stop 
changing the code ?

As I (and others) argumented, it eases a couple of development issues. It could 
be a flawed view - but then, demonstrate it, and suggest other solutions.

Note that those points weren't based on air, but on significant experience in 
other projects, not on "taste" or other egocentric or sentimental feelings.

Given that you are not a coder, you have no right to decide for me what I 
should work on (Note that I usually don't follow such a philosophy - but since 
you expressed the exact same reasoning not so long ago, I find it appropriate 
to provide the same kind of answer now).

Why ? I see a rant based on a pure sentimental feeling from somebody who has 
little knowledge of the Crossfire code, or of C coding in general. Provide 
technical arguments, and we'll have a serious discussion. If you cannot, then 
stop spamming the list.

Just as a side note, scrapping the whole code has never been the intend. Next 
time, try to understand the emails you read before flaming their content.

Out-of-topic - we're discussing the pros/cons of modularization, not about your 
personal wishes about the code.
