Is my point all along, I agree a thousand percent. Plus, I don't think there's a
need to change anything that doesn't need to be changed, anyhow. Plus, I think
most changes except for the logical extension of 32bit counts/offset values to
64bit would not actually be improvements. (Just stressing that because I think
my inability to speak proper English may be confusing my point.)
