Well your suggestion analogises to a sledgehammer if naught but for its verbosity. As others have suggested, I cannot imagine having to type such a sprawling solution in. There is no need to post an alternative solution for this observation to be valid.

As such, all that I can say to this Neo is that there appears to be a clear impression of your 'model' here. If (in your opinion) we have an incorrect understanding then (if it were me) I would think about why this miscomprehension has occurred, reassess my delivery and attempt to remedy the situation.

Its a sad fact of life that noone is going to get off there backsides to help one do this. Start a new thread and convince us. But the onus is on you.

I wish you all best and I will leave it at that, Jim.
