I don't know how else to explain it, other than the several ways in which 
I've already tried.

Anyone who submits code has a level of "tree control". Right now, this 
thread, and "design discussions" like it, just waste people's time.

I'm happy to respond to code and to arguments with my points, but your 
responses all boil down to "I don't understand what you're saying". I 
don't know how to respond usefully to that.
