:I disagree. The "extra" line specifically exercises and demonstrates the "Extra kudos for not including adjoining punctuation during "Overkill" redaction." task guideline, which isn't part of the base task but an "above and beyond" goal. There is a pretty long history of task implementers including some minor extra testing to demonstrate their implemetations capabilities. If it offends you so much, perhaps you should have some harsh words for the [[Brazilian_numbers#Phix|author]] [[Esthetic_numbers#Phix|of]] [[First_perfect_square_in_base_N_with_N_unique_digits#Phix|these]] [[Pierpont_primes#Phix|task]] [[Sequence:_nth_number_with_exactly_n_divisors#Phix|implementations]] [[Sequence:_smallest_number_with_exactly_n_divisors#advanced|that]] [[Sequence:_smallest_number_with_exactly_n_divisors#insane|all]] [[Weird_numbers#Phix|supply]] [[Pell's_equation#Phix|more]] [[Nimber_arithmetic#Phix|than]] [[Palindrome_dates#Phix|strictly]] [[Extensible_prime_generator#Phix|required]]. Note: I am not advocating that they be modified, just pointing out the cognitive dissonance that it is ok for some tasks, but not for others.

::It is not about going above and beyond, of course I'm fine with that.
::It is about making the [initial] output more difficult to read.
::If you think the output of any of those examples (nice list btw) could be improved or made clearer in any way, let me know.
::Anyway, since I am never going to convince you, good thing there's a one-click undo, eh? --[[User:Petelomax|Pete Lomax]] ([[User talk:Petelomax|talk]]) 23:09, 15 September 2020 (UTC)
