I'm kind of weirded out by the fact that a three-paragraph post originally put in Discussion that took me ten minutes to write is now my most upvoted post of all time.
Unlike some of the more abstruse topics, this one is likely of at least some interest/value to nearly everyone reading the site...
You identified a need and acted on it. Well done. You probably do net get to choose where you make the biggest impact.
PS: my most voted comment used to be just one word
Which word?

Will be difficult to top.
It's like the joke about the mechanic who fixes a car's engine by hitting it once with a hammer. He charges the owner $200 and the guy complains: "All you did was hit the engine with a hammer, I'm not paying $200 for that." So the mechanic gives him an itemized bill: Hitting the engine with a hammer, $5; Knowing where to hit it: $195.
It's more that this is just a good way to start interesting conversations, I think.
