This is a perfect example of "over-complexification" - Why didn't you just use "D" instead of "${MY_PN:0:1}" ? While technically not /wrong/ - it is harder to read for no gain. I'm confident that our fellow devs can read this but I think we should all strive for being more user-friendly. Thanks, Jeremy
