You have struck a chord with numbers in the path, reminds me of the
pre-Xorg days with /usr/X11R6, not sure what I disliked more, the
capital letters or the numbers!

I hereby relent, and yield to the logic of the arguments placed before

is a better idea.

Thanks for your persistence folks, the feedback is appreciated :)
