Mostly, because that is not the problem I am solving at the moment. I
reimplemented the LM creation system. In so doing the fact that a
single LM is not guaranteed was exposed more clearly. I have contained
its effect by catching the exception, and have not explored the stack
of methods that may need to declare the throwing of an exception. That
is a problem in its own right, to be solved at another moment.
