Period spelled out? Wow, you must be right.

I imagine that always settles the matter at code review for you, especially when you yell it. Glad you showed up to correct me!

(BTW, what you're describing -- speculatively adding unneeded functionality -- is called gold plating. People commonly use "over-engineering" to describe something else)
