As someone who has been following this, I support the work Helmut and
Simon Richter have been doing.
I have more confidence in that view than the one Luca is proposing.
I also support Shawn's interpretation that being conservative here is
good.

I think even with my support we have no consensus.  However hopefully we
can get a few more people who have been reading the whole thread to
chime in and a consensus will appear.
