Phyllo, you are making a fuss.
Try starting a lot of threads on the same topic. That is, on the continuum of making a fuss to not making a fuss, far towards the latter.
You don't want to be seen as fussy.
There is a 5.363452% chance that I will start such a thread. Objectively.

Remember in Star Trek when Spock would give a ridiculously precise probability of something happening?

I always took Spock (and Kirk and Bones, if we are going back to the orginal and then the remake of the original) as symbolic, a sort of archtype. Maybe VA is a symbol/archtype.
