But wouldn't those type of options be better suited as H-spec
keywords?  Such as Optimize(), Option(), etc?  Some of these H-spec
keywords are available as compile parms, but some are not.  Such as
ActGrp().  Rather than treat these as some other type of animal
(command override), why not treat them as their similar counterparts?

... And why would it take longer (10 years) to create a new H-spec or
a modified F-spec, rather than a completely new type of animal
(command override?  command default?)
