I'm not sure why I had it stuck in my head that you wrote all your code but that's a complement not disrespect.
When I was doing production runs on my knee mill there were things I didn't do with my designs because the time and effort couldn't be made up in the price of the part, so the end result reflected that. If I were writing code long hand today it would be reflected in the parts, meaning there are things I would and wouldn't do. We both know what a monumental effort it would be to write 1000's of lines of code. lol Your minimalistic approach to design comes across (to me at least) as something that was hand coded but I never meant it to come across as a bad thing. I was by no means talking your work down, you
always did right by me and I always liked your work.
