A reproducible one, or at least one that aimed at stability across multiple conversions, could make this easier, but I guess reposurgeon is not such a tool. Which suggests to me we have to be even more reassured of the correctness of its moving-target output before we adopt it, unlike other conversion tools that have long had a certain stability of output built into their design. I understand you're on it, and I thank you for undertaking much of that validation and verification work.
