Ahem. Right. That would be silly. No one would do that.
(Quick, I'll change the subject!)
I'll...uh... So Rust sure looks nice. Nothing silly going on there.
(Joking aside, I've really never done that. I can't claim I've never done anything similarly silly and wasteful. But I haven't done that, anyway.)
