That is an empty statement. What is there to be happy about ?

Also the complementary argument pretty much destroy the best 
argument you and Walter made for DIP25 : it is simple. I mean, 
one need to look at the big picture. DIP25 + complementary 
addition is not simple anymore.

Yeah there are IRL discussion, there are many posts in the forum, 
there are by mail discussions at DIP25 creation time, there are 
at least one DIP already.

The only rebuttal to all of this is "Walter and I are happy with 
DIP25, and the fact of the matter", while everybody else is 
wondering what there is to be happy about.
