Why? What is so important about this particular way, that you are
willing to spend/waste so much time on it? You act like someone
who want to get from Brussels to London and when asked how to
do that gets advise on how to take the boat or plane at which
point you react that you want to get to Londen without boat
or plane but just by bicycle. And in further exchange make it
clear that using a bike is more important than arriving in London.

So please why do you make it your priority to implement it in a
specific way, over it working correctly?
