Perhaps it was critical within the approach of the topic took, and
if a different approach was taken or the scope of topic was reduced,
you would have avoided it.  I would still consider such an unnecessary
change an unwated "whilte at it".

The moral of the story is that the topic took too big a bite to be
done without causing unnecessary mistakes like this.
