Just to make sure I'm sending the right message: I'd *love* to improve
it, but I need help. I'm not pushing back on your ideas, I'm asking for
help with their implementation.
Maybe I'm putting words in Greg's mouth, but I think we both would
ideally want to standardize around a single set of tools and scripts,
it's just the case that both of us started with different set of
problems we were trying to solve, and so our tooling evolved
independently.
