That was implied in the first response in this thread. I challenge anybody to
find where I actually used the term header file in reference to Standard
Headers other than when I was clear about that being an implementation detail
rather than a requirement. It has been suggested I don't understand that
distinction, yet the record shows that I was careful to maintain it in what I
wrote.

I would like to see any evidence someone actually understood what I was
suggesting. I did reread the thread from the beginning.
