Sure, Charlie: my comment is just a comment, and if it’s best to leave DTL
and OTL defined as they are, then definitely do so.  No worries.

To answer Carsten, the issue isn’t with DTL itself: it’s that DTL and OTL
are defined differently.  OTL is the length and DTL is the length minus
one, and it’s that they’re different that I think might result in
implementation errors.

Anyway, no further discussion needed, and thanks for the discussion we’ve
had.

Barry
