I do understand you suggestions, and your reason for them. But I believe 
them to be another speedbump on the learning curve. Because as you 
develop your products, and add stuff to them, they become more and more 
like regular products. And then you will have to unlearn it again.

Hmm ... yes. That might be a good idea. I will probably do that.
