And perhaps there are ways to automate (or semi-automate) more of the changes, using macros or table autoformats or something, which I haven't spent time figuring out. We could discuss whether to spend the time on those items when working on the first version of the other books, but OTOH debating stuff takes time that could be spent getting real work done. Note: I don't have any objection to the changes as such, just the timing of them.
