Let's not divert the discussion to
yet-another-completely-hypothetical-and-useless discussion, please, shall we?
We're dealing with a very real-world situation here, in which a piece of
software that does *exactly* the same thing is now available. Why not have
abstraction for it? I don't know, perhaps because it just makes no
sense? Think about it for a while, perhaps you'd realize that; I don't
think I can explain this in any better way. Perhaps somebody else on this
list can help me?
