   Different way of achieving the same result.  I looked it up and   
   tried it and yes it works but it just seems a more involved process   
   that doesn't commit to muscle memory in quite the same way but that   
   is probably more habit than anything else, indeed playing with   
   these things I found it hard _not_ to automatically apply the BBC   
   method.
