Hey! Spent a little time looking at this bit and just wanted to reply
to this point.  So first, apologies, I think I missed the suggestion
earlier. That said, now that I've looked a little bit at the test
harness, and at least at this point it feels like it makes it harder
to reason with than standard c code.  Maybe I need to spend a bit more
time on it, but I'm a little hesitant to swap over just yet.

I'm not particularly passionate on this point, but are you?  Or was
this just a recommendation to check it out and consider it?

thanks
