I've had these conversations with Thomas before.  The concept of bandgap
diodes, etc. in a painstaking search for the perfect VCO is not lost on him.
One of the most revealing things about his approach is his comment to me one
day:  "Just because you can do something doesn't mean you should."

Not that I've been terribly good applying that axiom - it runs against the
grain of my own Kitchen Sink mentality.  But I'm trying really hard =0).

The point is, though, he's from the Hutchins,/Simonton/Anderton school of
design - do as much as you can as elegantly as possible with as little as
you can.  Specsmanship does not impress him, he's more interested if serious
music can be made from a design.
