Well, because full rewrites are usually not a great idea.

I was not impolite or at least didn't intend to be.

> As far as I'm reading the comments from you (Patrick) on this revision, you

Not at all.

> It reads like a mix of you feeling partially jealous and partially threatened.

That is your own projection. I welcome any contribution.

I wasn't aware of large architectural deficiencies can you please share.
