The core layers are not overly complex, and were hardly affected at all by adding this Python support. My whole intention with the design of Ledger is to make the design supportive of future additions without introducing new complexity at the lower levels. Thus, if you don't build in the Python support, then Ledger runs very much as it would have if I'd never written that support. "If you don't use it, you don't pay for it". If all these features were coming at the cost of core elegance and simplicity, that is when I would balk at adding them. But in actual fact, some of the new support I've added in the past two weeks has actually made Ledger *cleaner and simpler* internally, even though outwardly I've enriched its capabilities. John
