This is correct so far.

This view did not hinder you to integrate some of my update suggestions
which you found easier to handle.

I find such an information too unsafe for an official acceptance test.

> How can I trust it?

* Would you dare to inspect the shown source code adjustments again?

* How do you think about to sort the remaining update candidates
