Do you have any sources on methanol concentration that support your claims? If not the sources I provided show a low risk.

I have, you're pushing nonsense. The methanol doesn't "come out in the heads" and batch size doesn't affect the final concentration as a % because roughly the same ratio is present during a run with a slight in crea

Big fan of sane defaults like this. I like tmux, but I no longer spend time customizing it for every server I run it on, only to be tripped up on some new server I haven't set-up yet.

You want the best spread possible, by having the largest pool possible. We can all debate and discuss the best way to get there, but mathematically it's a pool that includes most everyone.

I like that because it's just text, and obsidian is un-opinionated on organization, it allows us all to find workflows that suit us!

That's incorrect. The methanol bonds tighter to water and doesn't distill out clean in the heads.
