Sorry. I don't see the point. Which "slightly usefulness" do you want
to achieve with that? Is it really an increase in usefulness? Is that
worth its cost and negative side effects?



I'm still trying to figure out the meaning of the term "totally
unuseful"; wouldn't a more straightforward way of saying this be
"totally useless"? (hell, "unuseful" isn't even in spellcheck.) Off to
