    Small suggestion: in the "Try These Examples" section, the call-to-action is click a button that is not initially visible. Users have to hover over the image to see the "recreate" button, which is not obvious. You shou

    I think GP's point is that it's achingly difficult to believe anyone at this point still buys into the "efficiency" bullshit. Fool me once, shame on you, fool me 20 times...

    This could really use a short, pithy code example at the start of the readme to show what it looks like. Otherwise, you have to get pretty far into the docs to see any actual commands, or click the example link which doesn’t display well on
