    Oli>> There is no such thing as 4.5D BSO.   
      
    ml> no shit... i'm calling it that BECAUSE it is half way between 4D and 5D...   
      
   But what you call 4.5D BSO is what everyone else calls 5D BSO.   
      
    Oli>> This is exactly what 5D BSO is,

   No, you are wrong :-P

   There are arguments for and against the hex extension / default zones per   
   domain. I don't think that one is better than the other. The most important   
   thing is that developers agree on one format. BinkleyTerm introduced that   
   format and it was the reference implementation. Other software that was   
   developed (long before Binkd was a thing) also implemented BinkleyTerm Style   
   Outbound as later documented by the FTSC. There is no point in arguing today   
   that it should be different. It is like it is.

   That's Binkd's problem ... Other software don't become broken just because   
   Binkd invented its own BSO flavor.
