I am not saying that Dmitry is right; I am not even /thinking/ that Dmitry is right; but ... Mankind has an unpleasant habit of dismissing out of hand ideas that are so innovative that they challenge all received wisdom (cf. Heliocentricity v. the prevailing Ptolemaic model). So might it not be wiser (and certainly more polite) to avoid the use of the word "stupid" when referring to Dmitry's proposals, and rather term them "highly unorthodox" or similar ?
