Forgive me for not having a clear definition of "open coding" in mind
(showing a different way of implementing something, compared to the
"status quo" that I was not yet aware of?), nor knowing what NIH is
supposed to mean in this context.  We're in bike-shedding territory
anyway, guess I should just bookmark the page that details all the many
`%` format strings available.
