I was trying to give you a couple of ways to avoid similar problems in
the future. The way to get better at programming is to:
    Figure out why you made the mistake.
    See if you can change the way you work to prevent such problems.
    If you can't prevent the problems:
        Try to make the problem rare.
        Try to catch the problems early.

It's not so much that I want you to do it my way; I was just suggesting
a couple of ways to improve your own process.
