I see, I don't know how I missed that, thanks for pointing it out. I still think that the API itself is neat and I'd love to see that for the sake of comfort, but I also agree that the enforcement to use it even when it makes no sense to do so is just stupid. Let's just hope that they fix this overshot at least if they refuse to drop it altogether.
