This is qualitatively no different than an exchange like: "Why <FRAME>s?" "Because they're there". One would think that on a developer list, there would be a greater than usual willingness to consider *developing* alternatives, rather than merely finding satisfaction on the basis of what already exists, thanks to having caught the fancy of developers who came before. It really seems that Afs do *not* have to be rediscovered. They have to be reinvented. Leading edge and all that.
