Yes!!! For many reasons.
Please, do elaborate, Syke. I'll admit, I don't know how it is impossible. I'm assuming you're talking about the constraints of design and expected performance improvements with a node size shrink?
I think you are confusing who said what if you are saying I made the "Plan B, but really Plan A" statement. I didn't.
...
The rest tl/dr.
No, I don't remember you particularly saying that Plan B was actually Plan A. It has been shouted here, and I wouldn't even argue that. In fact, I think KnC from inception expected to go down this path at some point or another.
And that's fine too, I realize some don't have the attention span to take in arguments developed in depth and need short. punchy. points. for quick comprehension.
