It is just one more line of code, and other viewers may need it.

It is easy, I agree. My point is that $$i will be a relative name for
converters, but a full name for viewers. This seems inconsistent to me.

No, that's not a problem. It is just that some viewers may need an
absolute name, and some others may prefer a relative one...
