Good eyes. Doesn't steps 15 & 16 cover the same theme, though? IOW, if surviving Cogito users appear after we take this 16-patch series, would reverting this step the only thing needed if we decide to accomodate them again (and removal of head-name done in step 16 can still be kept without harming these Cogito users)? I am wondering if these should be merged into one patch.
