You're welcome to solicit other opinions.  I'm not unwilling to give
way if there's a chorus of support for the way you've done it.  But to
me it sounds like you're saying that it doesn't really matter whether
the system is scalable and maintainable because we only have 5
functions right now, which is a design philosophy with which I just
don't agree.
