I find the claim that my code is incomprehensible to people smart enough to 
architect Freenet, less than credible. We could, and probably will (much 
later if ever,I hope) debate what you mean by "arbitrary".   An arbitrary 
mathematical model with arbitrary constants is, well, arbitrary.  I inherited 
code with just such a model. And it didn't work.

I don't know what you mean by this.  Any outbound contact management system 
will override the routing over the short term.  That's it's purpose.

Groovy.
