Nobody is inventing problems Jakub.  Just because nobody has yet
complained does not mean that there is not a problem.  If you can't see
the QA issues, then you really need to stop commenting in this thread,
because there are a lot of people who know better.

Furthermore, you are playing right into the hands of He Whom I Will Not
Name, thus allowing yourself to be trolled into sounding like an idiot
in public.  You suffered from the same problem in the bbapm thread recently.
