If it's the case that it wasn't customized to the target, yes, that would be something. I'll need to re-read that book. Fortunately I'm about 2/3s of the way through re-reading the entire series at the moment.

I don't think the word 'macro' isn't confusing things. I'm using it with full intent to refer to simple scripting.
