I concur.
People *building* difficult stuff can't see the difficulty because they know the stuff
by name, having seen it grow from day one. As I may have said earlier, I can feel the
power of parse, I can almost grasp it, but there's something *just* out of reach. This
context thing I almost got... almost, but not quite... And other little things here
and there.
