You are absolutely right. And I actually prefer arthas's version of it.

As far as hiding the pipe goes, I don't think it's necessary. I don't mind the underlying mechanism being transparent as long as the trip there takes a bit of thought. (And, mine admittedly doesn't take much...)

Abigail's is a masterpiece. There's no denying it. And it certainly has the quality I like in that it looks simple at first and draws you in. It doesn't look like line noise.

Even if we can agree on near perfection when we see it, I think we just have different tastes in japhs. :-)
