Thanks for working on this, Russ. While reinventing the wheel is frowned upon most of the time, there are settings where reinventing wheels should be encouraged, particularly the educational setting. Sometimes it is worthwhile to do some calculations by hand or by slide rule, then go back to the calculators and spreadsheets; the act of reinventing enhances the understanding of why things are done the way that they are done. You better appreciate koji if you build your own mini-beehive.
For most of us, though, it's just a time sink. Yasha is in a different environment than most of us.
