Where do > you want this bike shed? :-) It's not a bikeshed, it's a matter of principle. We still have machines on this planet that take days to build world. I don't care if we choose an approach that doesn't handle days (that's why it's not a bikeshed), because at least we were *aware* of its limitations. Having an approach that doesn't handle days without us being aware or even thought about it, is wrong. It's all a matter of being conscious.
