Not specifically at Ian, but at the thread in general:

I don't think it's a case of nobody believing that any instability can
be programmed into an otherwise stable oscillator. Of course it can be
done, and it's being done in many commercially-available virtual
analog synthesizers.

IMO, as someone who finds use for oscillators of the stable and
unstable variety, in the cases where I want an unstable oscillator,
I'd rather just patch in a different oscillator than use other modules
to create that instability in a stable one.

In short, different strokes for different folks, if you like your
oscillators stable and occasionally programmed for instability, these
oscs aren't for you, but I don't see the point in loudly proclaiming
that nobody has a need for them just because you don't.
