I'm just sitting here blinking my eyes over and over at the 
thought of considering (essentially) losing the ability to track 
column numbers for errors in order to potentially save 20MB of 
memory usage in a process that is currently using... \**presses 
compile and glances at second monitor*\* 2GB.

In other news, the City Council recently decided that doing away 
with crosswalks would be the best solution to dealing with the 
robot-cars-barreling-over-people epidemic.  After careful 
consideration, it was determined that the benefit of meeting 
human needs was trivial compared to the 1% improvement in machine 
efficiency.
