Oh my gosh, how blind I was.
I don't know what I was thinking!

I must have been really tired that day.
It has been so hot.  It wipes me out.

Reversed my folly and made the original fix I had.

Pushed it.

I must never use anything but expand-all.

I'll keep testing tomorrow.  I'm almost through  all the filter factories and 
filters.  Some of the searches and search cache, and the stack commands for 
each stack.
