thanks

Hello Luis,

Thank you for your report. I'll surely check it out.

However, I'm downgrading the severity of this bug. I've taken a look at
the justification you reference, and that article mentions only a
"should". Apart from the formal argument, I do not believe that this
violation makes the package in any way unsuitable for release.
