It seems for me, we can take the timing of HW in Matam (and Mamat) as another point in favour of some schedule. But I don't see the need to add another lecture.
Again, I don't see it as a must in our series. If Matam people want, they are more then welcome to organize such a lecture/tutorial, and I believe we can give them help in that. But extending the entire series, or shifting it by one week afterwards is always a problem (midterm exams). and we do cover these topics in the series.
