I don't disagree with you, but I'm not immediately convinced that a  
large design change will automatically reduce the bug count, either.

Which spec did you have in mind? I'd like to read it.

No, I don't think so -- and I don't mean to object to this idea,  
either. I was just asking for clarification.
