And PSB is a form of esthetics, as long as either PSB
POV has SOME credence.	You pick the one that is
denfensible AND feels right for your tastes.  Either
way, it still comes down to which Setting/PSB/flavor
you want, and for some of us, the current model works
fine.  But for some it might not, and the ideas that
have been bantered seem to fix that for those settings.
