The latter one (different course) needs spearate treatment from the
former (typofix).  Small corrections without changing course is
better communicated with "will fix when I reroll" while a drastic
change should warn the readers not to waste their time on the
premature initial version, i.e. "I came up with a drastically
different and better idea; please ignore the one I just posted and
wait for an updated one".

I'll sleep on what I rewrote to see if I or other people find better
phrasing.

Thanks.
