It isn't baffling to me.  While I like the idea of a CF spec I will be
quick to also say that I have a recurring nighmare of seeing RPG

from 10+ years ago I now realize that today's hot idea can become next
decade's trivia test.   (WSU anyone?)   

I can see free-from becoming some sort of mystical incantation, project
like getting the apostrophes right in an OPNQRYF select.
