It wasn't felt as such... As I said, I like Erik's ideas. If it seemed
anything else, then my apologies as well. I guess I had just some
irritation to get rid of.

We don't really disagree on the goals. There's some discussion between
us on what to include and what not, but nothing that I would feel too
unhappy to lose the discussion on, and I don't think this is different
for Erik. There is however a huge difference in the road we want to take
there.
