Indeed, it does, Thanks Mehdi and Justin for going the extra mile to
show how it's done.

The point I made earlier is that we'll have *some* pain regardless of
what we change. If we change more, we'll have more pain, true, but if
we change to a place where we want to be, the change will only happen
once.

I think that's a worthy goal.

cheers,
