--- Comment #135 from Luke Kenneth Casson Leighton <lkcl at lkcl.net> ---
alexandre, whilst it is beginning of day for you, cole and jacob, i have been
on this issue non-stop for 10 hours straight.

i need a rest so will answer briefly and tersely on key points only, in an
effort to allow you, with some thought (before more words), to understand.

the multi-issue muxer is part of Phase 1 (actually, the connector/router
between 1 and 2) which Jacob, in comment #132 just before you replied here,
successfully implements in an O(log N) algorithm the "indices" that get passed
to the muxer.

without going into full detail right now, which i will probably best do in
video form, tomorrow, after resting, the issue that you highlight is a
non-issue.

the FSM is fine: can i ask you if you could kindly give some thought, after
reviewing jacob's multi-issue decoder in comment #132, "why did he say that?"
and after resting somewhat i will start again tomorrow with some diagrams.
