I think most of the (minor) disagreement in this thread stems from the counterproductive mentions of "Peel's authorial intent". All that matters is what is spelled out in the text; making any references to authorial intent, whether it's supported by the text or not, is a non sequitur and just confuses other editors. Nobody should be talking about any author's interpretation at all, just the content of their stories.
