I really don't see any point in thrashing this out yet again. The last time was only, what, a couple of months back? It's obvious that there are some people on the list for whom even as trivial an alteration as removing a grass stem would be totally unacceptable. Equally, there are also people who have no problem removing what they consider to be irrelevant background details. No matter how many posts are made, I don't see much chance of anyone (in either camp) changing their position as a result. So let's just drop it now, before someone gets overheated.
