If a person tries to drill into history to figure out the answer to a question like "when was that code involving Listbox.font added", it is totally counterintuitive how to do that now. I run into this with git.git very often (you would think I would learn). I don=E2=80=99t have any argument with the rest of what you have said. = I probably did not make it clear enough that I was not trying to advocate for one side, only presenting pertinent information.
