I would really like to make progress here.

I pointed out basic problems/questions with the proposed alternative. I
think I answered all your questions. But you also said that you are not
going to accept the current approach. So some decision has to be made.

Although it's very demotivating and frustrating (I hope not all work in
the MM area will be like this), if there is no guidance on how to
proceed, I'll have to switch to adding/removing/onlining/offlining whole
segments. This is not what I want, but maybe this has a higher chance of
getting reviews/acks.

Understanding that you are busy, please if you make suggestions, follow
up on responses.
