Thanks, I wasn't aware that this subsystem-specific documentation
existed. The reverse-xmas-tree rule also means I need to move the `int
budget` variable lower in the declarations.

ACK, I'll drop patch 3 for now and designate a v2 for `net`.

Thank you for saying my messages aren't slop. :) I'll try to dial back
the verbosity, though. What kind of bloviation do I have? Should I be
leaving off more context, or should I focus more on preserving the
same detail but using fewer words?

Cheers,
Sam
