If you are wondering why I'm inflammatory, here you go. You are
pulling me the old prove a negative trick. You have good evidence
that DIP25 is good design ? Good, because I have none. And that's
my proof. As long as I have no evidence that DIP25 is good, DIP25
is bad.

I don't think grepping for return will have a good noise to
signal ratio. You also mentioned several time that you have good
evidence that DIP25 rox. Yet, every time you post that without
any evidence, I'm a bit more convinced that none exists.
