The wording of whatever was said there may be important.  Dr. Raney may 
have been infuriating at times, but I've never known him to be willfully 
dishonest.

That he didn't see the value in it seems more like him.  Indeed, neither 
has Kevin or anyone working on the engine in the 10 years since.

HC-style sound channels have some nifty attributes useful for a few 
projects, but until someone can put together a business case for this it 
will continue to be a wish rather than a feature.

But of course with a sufficiently compelling business case any tool 
vendor would be stupid not to.

Why isn't there an external for this?
