Now I am completely confused -- you had me remove the mention of rzn1
from everywhere it mattered to handle 'family' cases, and now you are
telling me that in *this* case where there is not a single chance of that file
covering another part and there's a clear cut case for it to be part specific
.... I should call it rzn1?!?

I even already renamed the symbols on my tree to match the
rest for v4...

I'd like consistency -- I *thought* I had a consistent naming scheme before,
now I've moved to your part specific one (under duress), I'd rather stick to
something that is consistent and keep everything as r9a06g032 now.

Fixed all the other remarks, thanks for that!
