Dear Graybeard:
No sighted or sensed arrogance is evident to me in your post, which has stimulated the interest of several thoughtful people I am privileged to know. I'm still thinking about it. As you are apparently aware, the approach we are moving on is notably less traveled. Hope to hear more from you.
Best regards
