Well, I am now in the middle of that unusual situation where many people on
this list have been from time to time, where:

1) I have no actual expertise on a particular subtopic
2) I therefore rely on various SMEs (subject matter experts) on that
subtopic
3) The SMEs do not agree

But I will forward this all on and see if maybe some understanding of
justifications can be reached. Outright agreement or conversion of opinions
does seem unlikely, however. :-(
