OK, I understand where they are coming from, even though it's not my
interest. Making a living is competitive enough. Hobbies are for relaxing.

My objection to this particular suggestion is that it seemed to me
counter-intuitive. I have visions of the K3 starting to behave like
Microsoft Office, and trying to second-guess what I want to do based on some
programmer's ill-conceived algorithm, which is usually NOT what I wanted to
do at all.

Basically I prefer computers (and radios) to do JUST what I tell them, no
more and no less. That way I know what is happening, and feel that I am in
control, not the machine. If I want to do several things at once they can
allow me to create a macro.
