No, no, of course. No 'beefing' intended. I was just trying to make things
appear in order. I think one could get sort-of backwards trying to follow
the progression of the Ilya series if you assume that the 'G' model came
after the 'E' model, or such (which would not be true in Cyrillic).

For what it's worth, Erik
