Both where retracted.

The third (sender of) happened the following: opening the browser on a single method

that this idea of opening a different tool with no way of knowing beforehand which one

will open was never a good idea and that I always wanted to get rid of it.

In general, the idea of "you have to ask and get the ok from the list for every change"

Keep in mind that you can find a reason to *not* do something for *anything*.
