I like Velaki's approach; take everything and filter out the ones you know you want to ignore. If something new comes in, you can assess that and then update your ignore list if it's not important.

If you did it the other way (listing only what you want), then something new might be ignored that you actually want.

In the next value frame, you might externalize the list of known "ignore" patterns. That way you wouldn't be updating your code, but a config file instead.


I humbly seek wisdom.
