I think the two of you talked at cross purposes. Just observing, I can
follow his point, that you can easily switch probing off in the driver
(like Wolfgang Grandegger's and my patch does), so there is no need to
sacrifice some functionality of a whole algorithm. Just clear the
.class-entry in your driver and there should be peace ;)

All the best,
