I am less confident now. This bug is one of the most mysterious I have ever encountered! I have a *candidate* fix that is simpler and better on other grounds. Nevertheless, I still have *no idea* why the colorizer failed so spectacularly. I have only some conjectures. I shall merge a new PR later today. That plan seems prudent. An *early merge* will cost us nothing: - The PR is a step forward. The previous code is unacceptable. - An early merge will allow us all to use (and test!) the fix immediately. *Summary* - I shall merge a new PR later today. There is no guarantee that this PR is rock solid. - My investigations continue. A new ENB will discuss my conjectures and plans. - The fix necessitates a revision to the Theory of Operation!
