Since right now there is no regular discussion, it might be good stop making this comment, but if we get into more controversial posts are there are regular comments, I think it would be good to start this up again. Doing it on a case by case seems like too much work.
I don’t believe it’s too much work, because one can just systematically go through all old sequence reruns posts and add references where appropriate, which reduces work per post.
It’s a part of the original set of instructions. I’ve never seen any further discussion of it, so I’ve been doing it, although personally I would be happy to stop.

If anyone has a particular desire for this commenting to continue, speak now.
